If you fall short

Vaasa also accepts Cambridge C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency, the Finnish YKI test at level 5 in all subtests, and certain previous studies in English. The page does not describe conditional admission.

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