Sažetak
The goal of the paper was to demonstrate the extent of the students’ pre-knowledge of tourism terminology after their middle school graduation and passing the State Matura exam and immediately before their college enrolment. The study was conducted with an exam which contained 54 questions. The exam was meant for middle school graduates who had enrolled at the Virovitica University of Applied Sciences, which offers English language courses for all of its study programmes. The goal was to determine if pre-knowledge of the English language is satisfactory for performing independent assignments without any difficulties or if it is unsatisfactory, should it be necessary to work on the basic terminology in more detail and put more focus on resolving issues related to it. The study results have shown that students have satisfactory knowledge of grammar, but the knowledge of tourism terminology is unsatisfactory and should be taught in more detail.
