What are the DELF and the DALF?
The DELF and DALF are diplomas awarded by the French Ministry of Education to prove the French-language skills of non-French candidates.
There are six independent diplomas, which correspond, respectively, to the six levels of the Council of Europe' s Common European Framework
of Reference for Languages (CEFRL).

These diplomas are recognised by French universities and the Grandes Ecoles as meeting French language requirements for entry. DELF B2 for
undergraduate entry is usually required by French universities and a DALF C1 for postgraduate entry.
What diplomas should I take?
The 6 DELF and DALF diplomas are independent from one another, so you can take the level of your choice. You can also sit the examination
for a number of diplomas during the same examination session.
If you are studying at Alliance or not, please refer to the level and examinations description on this link
in order to decide which exam level you should sit for.
