University of Andorra Nears Capacity for Catalan B2/C1 Exams with 96 Registrants

The University of Andorra has registered 96 candidates for its official Catalan language exams at B2 and C1 levels, set for 24 October, with sign-ups still open as the initial limit of 100 spots approaches.

This represents the third round of such assessments since the university launched them last year under a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports. Demand has risen compared to prior sessions: the first, on 25 October last year, drew 71 participants—43 at B2 and 28 at C1—while the 25 April session this year had 70, with 42 at B2 and 28 at C1. Of the current registrants, 63 have selected B2 and 33 C1.

UdA officials note the exams' strong uptake and aim to expand opportunities amid growing interest. They are evaluating an increase to the 100-place cap to accommodate more candidates and avoid exclusions, as none have been rejected yet. The university intends to maintain its biannual April and October schedule, complementing the government's February and June exams.
