Test rules and how to send your score
The online version of PTE is not accepted, and the same applies to the online versions of IELTS, TOEIC, Cambridge and LanguageCert and to TOEFL iBT Home Edition. PTE Core is not mentioned. Your certificate must be less than two years old on 1 September, unless you completed education in English in the past two years. The page gives no Pearson code.
IELTS Academic on the same page is 6.0 overall, and Inholland does not accept IELTS certificates from a retake. No similar rule is stated for PTE.

If you fall short
You are exempt if you are a native speaker who completed secondary education in the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand, or if you hold a qualifying South African NSC, European or International Baccalaureate, or GCE or GCSE English at A to C. An existing Inholland diploma validation confirming your English also counts. No pre-sessional route is described.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Inholland programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
