TILAWAH PROFICIENCY TEST (TPT)

The Centre for Languages & Pre-University Development conducts the TPT every semester to a group of new intake IIUM students. All new students (English medium) are required to sit for TPT to determine their ability in reciting al-Quran. Students will be evaluated based on their ability in reciting the Quran in terms of fluency and correctness. From here, we can facilitate the process of placing the students at their respective levels.

It is compulsory for students to sit for TPT in their first year upon embarking on their undergraduate programme and then enrol in the Tilawah courses within the second year of study. However, should any student miss the TPT, they may apply for admission to the TPT public exam, subject to certain requirements. 

For IRK, BARB and BAHIM students, they must sit for the TPT exam. If they are not exempted, they are required to take the necessary courses to gain exemption before registering for their Advanced Tilawah Courses (TQ 3001 and TQ 3002), which are required by their Kulliyyah.
