of the Centre for Foundation Studies, (CFS) IIUM. Regardless of their specializations, these students
must sit for APT at the beginning of the admission process to measure their proficiency in Arabic

APT, which is a yearly assessment for new students joining CFS IIUM, is conducted by the Test and
Measurement Unit (TEMU), Department of Quranic Language (QLD) with the help and support from
other departments in CFS IIUM. The result of APT will determine student’s Arabic level in LQM
