For Higher Education students, the results are not communicated to the receiving institution/organisation.
Erasmus+ OLS • Two mandatory assessments: • one prior to your departure • one upon your return • You will receive a link to the assessment to your AAU student email about 1 month prior to departure • The assessment takes approx. 30 to 40 minutes, and consists of questions regarding e.g. grammar, vocabulary and comprehension. • You will have 30 days to fulfill the assessment • The result is automatically sent to the Erasmus+ coordinator
Erasmus+ OLS • Results are ranged from level A1 (lowest score) to C2 (highest score) • If your result is B1 (or lower) you have the opportunity to follow an online language course during your stay abroad in order to improve your language competence, if you wish to. • For further information: http://erasmusplusols.eu/app/uploads/2015/10/PARTICIPANT_FAQ_EN.pdf
