- International English Language Testing System (IELTS) – Academic, with a minimum overall score of 5.0 in each band, or
- 500+ in the Institutional TOEFL and 5+ in the WritePlacer test both administrated by Abu Dhabi University.
The TOEFL or IELTS tests should have been taken no more than two years prior to admission to Abu Dhabi University.
