From April Italian based test takers will be able to take PTE Academic to study or work abroad

Starting earlier this month, candidates can now take PTE Academic every Wednesday at the Pearson Italia Test Center in Milan, scheduling up to 24 hours in advance and getting results typically within 5 business days – often much quicker with over 85% of results returned within 2 days in 2018.

PTE Academic is recognized by thousands of programs in the USA, 100% of Australian, New Zealand, and Irish Universities, over 98% of UK universities, and 90% of Canadian. It is also one of the few language qualifications accepted for Visa purposes by the Australian and New Zealand governments.

Freya Thomas Monk, Senior Vice President English Assessment, Pearson said:

“I’m delighted that we are opening a PTE Academic Test Center in Milan and that Italian students can now experience what PTE Academic has to offer – an unbiased, secure, fast and accurate test of their English language ability skills.”

“PTE Academic is a high-stakes test that we at Pearson are very proud of. It is one of the few tests accepted by thousands of academic programs around the world as well as for Australian and New Zealand visa applications. It provides unbiased proof of a candidate’s English skills and scores are returned quickly – more than 85% within 2 days in 2018 – all achieved through our use of leading AI technology.”

The PTE Academic Center in Milan is located via Arconati 1 (Porta Vittoria Station, bus 92, tram 12). Pearson provides plenty of preparation to get ready for the exam, such as:
