Test rules and how to send your score

The page asks for a recent and valid document proving B2, noting that results are usually valid for two years and that you should check the validity period. It does not mention PTE Academic Online, PTE Core or a sending code. The list also includes PTE General Level 3, which is a different Pearson test from PTE Academic.

On the same list, IELTS is 5.5 to 6.5, TOEFL iBT 87 to 109 and the Duolingo English Test 100 to 125.

If you fall short

If your previous studies were in English, you can submit an official document from your school or university instead. The Accounting and Finance bachelor's, whose first year is not taught in English, needs only A2. VMU does not run its own English test, and students admitted at B2 must reach Academic English C1 during their studies.

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