If you fall short

The page does not describe a conditional route. As at other Finnish universities, writing is the gate: 68 overall with 60 in writing does not qualify.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Jyväskylä 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.
