3. ADMISSION INTO HIGHER LEVELS
● Students from other institutes and students joining after a break of more than six
months are welcome to join directly into our higher levels.
● An evaluation may be conducted to ensure optimum proficiency and for a better fit in
the subsequent levels. The Alliance Francaise Jaipur reserves the right to organise these
placement tests if necessary.
● If the student has a DELF DALF certificate from any Alliance in the world, this will be
considered as valid proof of their proficiency for admission into higher levels. However
the management reserves the right to put the student through an additional set of tests
to ensure their proficiency should the case arise and be necessary.
● In certain cases an access test is necessary. This is called Evalang. The objective of the
access test is to ascertain whether the student possesses the required competencies to
be able to directly enter the desired level of study and to cope with the course.
● The results of the access test will be valid for a period of one month only and students
are therefore encouraged to take it only before they wish to register for a class.

are not permitted to take an access test instead of their final evaluation.
