Eligibility
Academic Requirements
School-Leaving Requirement (Main)

- For the January 2027 certificates + online interview route, the qualifying degree must have been completed in one of Turku UAS’s specifically listed countries.
Note
Turku UAS separately verifies eligibility, English evidence and documents before the online interview.
Tests
Standardized Test Requirement
SAT or OMPT is not required for this route. Eligible applicants are invited to the online interview in complete-application order; interview and study places are limited.

Notes
- Turku UAS accepts IELTS Academic 6.0 band, PTE Academic 55 and TOEFL iBT 3.5 for tests taken on or after 21 January 2026; TOEFL iBT 60 applies to earlier tests. No separate IELTS minimum per band is published.
- Other accepted evidence includes Cambridge English Scale 169, TELC B2, Oxford ELLT Global 6.0 and YKI English Grade 4. English-medium study completed in Bangladesh does not itself meet the published education-based exemption.

- Bangladesh-issued qualifications are not eligible for this certificates + online interview route. Applicants with Bangladeshi qualifications should review the SAT/OMPT rolling-admission option where suitable.
