English via CELPIP-General, IELTS General Training or PTE Core for immigration. Universities set their own academic English requirement.

• Federal Skilled Worker needs CLB 7 in a first official language

• SAT registration from India or the UAE is 111 US dollars
• Many universities remain test optional, which changes whether you should submit a score at all

English tests are changing. Your choice should depend on where you're headed.

IELTS has moved towards computer delivered testing, while UK visa routes that require a SELT have their own list of approved tests and providers. TOEFL and Duolingo may be accepted by individual universities, but they are not currently on the UK Home Office's approved SELT list.

We help you understand which test fits your university, destination and visa pathway before you prepare for it.

Competent English means 6 in each of the four IELTS components, or the equivalent on another accepted test.

• Home Affairs accepts no test delivered completely online, which rules out Duolingo for visas
• PTE Academic is accepted for all work and migration visas and turns results around fastest
• Cambridge C1 Advanced, OET and TOEFL iBT are also on the accepted list

IELTS is the most widely accepted English test for Irish universities.

• English taught throughout, so no second language is required
• We handle shortlisting, applications and visa documentation

English is the working language and no language test is required for residence. The requirement comes from the university, not the visa.

• Worth planning around: the JLPT runs in Abu Dhabi only, not Dubai

• On the Opportunity Card, A2 is 1 point, B1 is 2 and B2 or above is 3. Stopping at the A1 minimum earns zero points

Campus France states B2 is the minimum for most institutions, with C1 strongly recommended for humanities.

• Accepted proofs are TCF SO, TCF DAP, DELF A1 to B2 and DALF C1 to C2
• TCF DAP is the version required for first year undergraduate entry and architecture schools
• DELF and DALF never expire. TCF is valid for two years
