In order to apply to the Call for International Exchange Programs with European (Erasmus+) and non-European countries 2025-2026, Luiss organises 4 language tests aimed at students who do not already have a Luiss language level.
Applicants must register for the test when submitting of their application, by ticking the specific "Sel to register" box on the right, next to the test in which one wants to take part.
It is also not necessary to register for a language test if no destinations associated with that language have been selected in the application.
Students who, in addition to these tests, must also take the tests organized by the University Language Centre for the formation of language groups, must only participate in the test organized for the International Exchange Call. The tests organised for the International Exchanges Call replace the tests organised by the University Language Centre for the formation of language groups, therefore it is not necessary, nor possible, to take both.
Below are the dates and methods of the language tests:
