The below standardised test scores are accepted as proof of English Proficiency for admission into ALU Rwanda.
You can submit any of the listed tests however, we do recommend the Duolingo English Test (paid version) and the TrackTest English core test with Exam verification (paid version) because the results are available within 48 hours after taking the test.
