Test Policy

In addition, standardized tests ensure the impartiality and transparency of our admission. Citizens of Azerbaijan interested in our undergraduate programs have an option to apply through available routes: 1. SEC test; 2. SAT test; 3. IB DP scores/A-levels/AP scores. Winners of relevant international and local Olympiads are eligible to apply without the test scores. Please see the link for the details. (https://cabmin.gov.az/az/document/3710/)

ADA University has an admission policy based on holistic review. While a student's academic success is important, equally important is that student's potential for growth and an ability to perform in a diverse and multicultural environment.
The best indication of whether a student will be successful at ADA University is prior academic performance - grades earned, rigor of coursework and integrity of their GPA. Meanwhile, the results of standardized tests may be another predictor of academic success.
