Test rules and how to send your score

PTE Academic Online is accepted. You must both send the score report to OsloMet through your Pearson account and upload the PDF score report in the application portal, Søknadsweb. The TOEFL code 6531 on the same page is for ETS only. The page does not mention PTE Core or a validity period.

On the same page IELTS Academic or IELTS Online needs 6 overall with 6 in each component, and TOEFL iBT needs 80 with 20 in each section or 4.5 with 4 in each. All three routes have a floor in every skill.

If you fall short

You do not need a test if you completed upper secondary education in one of the listed countries, such as Australia, Canada, Kenya, Singapore, the UK or the USA, or at least one year of university studies taught in English in the UK, USA, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand or Australia. IB English HL at 4 also counts.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your OsloMet programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.

Pearson has discontinued PTE Academic Online for new bookings, so plan on a test-centre PTE Academic sitting even where this page still lists the online version. See can you take PTE at home.
