PTE Academic acceptance and scores at Austrian universities
| Institution and scope | Published PTE Academic position | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| WU Vienna: English-taught bachelor's in Business and Economics | At least 70 | Evidence is due by personal admission. Check the programme's application steps and evidence conditions. |
| WU Vienna: general English-taught master's requirements | PTE is not listed on this page | Do not transfer the bachelor's acceptance to a master's. Ask admissions; International Management/CEMS uses separate requirements. |
| TU Graz: English-taught master's programmes | 76 | Certificate no more than two years old at application. |
| TU Graz: Acoustics, Music, and Information Engineering; Computer Science; Software Engineering and Management; Information and Computer Engineering; Chemical Process Engineering | 59 | Certificate no more than five years old at application. This row only covers the named B2 bachelor's routes. |
| University of Innsbruck: English-taught programmes requiring B2 | 62 | Test no more than two years old. The English and American Studies master's requires C1 instead; the B2 score does not settle that programme's target. |

- Write down the exact programme, intake, accepted PTE version, published score and evidence deadline. If a component minimum or online-test policy is absent, ask rather than assuming.
- Compare your test date with the certificate-age limit and submission date for each application.
- If your previous education may qualify as English evidence, compare the institution's exact country, duration and document requirements. WU's bachelor's and master's lists differ.
- Keep any clarification from admissions with your application checklist. Confirm the accepted test before comparing local provider fees or availability.
Free PTE Academic practice by skill
| Focus | Useful attempt | What to review |
|---|---|---|
| Reading | Answer a Reading and Writing Fill in the Blanks set. | Check grammar and the meaning of the surrounding sentence, then review the explanation for each choice. |
| Listening | Try Write from Dictation. | Compare your attempt with the transcript and record missed words, endings and spelling errors. |
| Writing | Write an Academic summary or essay before opening the model. | Check the task requirements and your own supporting points. Comparing a model is not an official PTE score. |
| Speaking | Record a Read Aloud response and play it back. | Listen for omitted words, unclear sounds and pauses; then practise a new text. |

Frequently asked questions
Is PTE Academic accepted by every Austrian university?+
This guide confirms the named programme examples only. WU lists PTE Academic for Business and Economics bachelor's admission, but not in its general English-taught master's list. Check your exact programme before booking.
Can I use PTE Core for these Austrian study applications?+
The Pearson test named in the acceptance rows is PTE Academic. These sources do not establish acceptance of PTE Core as a substitute.
Can I convert an IELTS requirement into my PTE target?+
Use the institution's own PTE requirement. A conversion does not establish that the programme accepts PTE or that you meet its other conditions.
