Many of our courses require applicants to take an admissions test, and we use these tests to help us choose between all the excellent candidates who apply to study at Strathmore University. To make your application as competitive as possible it’s very important that you register for and take any admissions tests that are required for your course. We also strongly advise that you spend some time preparing for your test. Evidence suggests that people who have researched and practised their test do better.

Our University’s admissions tests are administered by our Admissions Office. Registration isn’t automatic and just completing your tests won’t register you for the interview so please make sure you follow the process carefully.
