Summary/Abstract: Our article makes an evaluation of the impact that the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL) has on academic professional training in Romania and its relevance for the teaching and learning process of applied languages at university level. Our research brings forward a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of language level of the first year students in the Academy of Economic Studies in Bucharest, the faculty of Finance, Insurance, Banks and Stock Exchange and its consequences on applied language instruction. Our case-study aims at raising awareness and finding solutions to improve the quality of applied language teaching and learning at university level, as a key factor for further educational, professional and social performance of the graduates. It suggests some easy-to-take solutions that might improve students and teachers' motivation and learning outcomes.
