Beginning in the winter semester of the academic year 2012/13 the Language Department will recognise the following certificates as valid instead of the language examinations sat at the Faculty of Science at University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice.
Recognition of a certificate instead of an examination means that the student receives an evaluation of "excellent" (výborně), (which does not, however, apply to the Final Master's Examination) and the credits associated with it.
A student who is interested in the recognition of a certificate is to call in on the Head or Deputy Head of the Language Department in their consultation hours with the original certificate to have its validity verified. Based on a valid certificate, the exam will be registered in STAG.
As valid replacements for the Progress Examination in English, the Language Department of FSci recognises the following certificates graded at A2 level (CEFR) and higher:
Cambridge ESOL: | KET – Key English Test |
City & Guilds: | IESOL – Access |
LanguageCert: | IESOL – Access |
