Tier1 - Graduation in English

Post by mallikz » Tue Jul 06, 2010 9:49 am

Hi,

I'm a lil confused about getting points in Graduation in English medium, can someone please clarify?

One of my friend did his Post Graduatation in Master of Computer Applications(MCA) which was done through English medium.

But he did his graduation through regional language medium (non english).

1. If he seeks to apply for Tier1 Visa- does he need to pass the prescribed the English test ? or can he show his Post Graduation medium to get points in this catagory?

2. In case he cant get points based on his Post Graduation Medium, then what test he needs to complete for Tier1 application? currently he is in India so please let me know the test name and center available in India?

Many thanks

Check UKBA points calculator. If the qualification is listed there in English language section and calculator awards 10 points against qualfiication then that is fine. Applicant need not to do any langauge test. But if calcualtor gives no points then yes English test is mandatory.

If you or ur friend think that you can claim 30 points for UG and additional 35 points for PG - then this question holds good.
Rather if i say that One person is only eligible to claim points either for UG or for PG, then show ur PG as qualification and claim points for Qualification and Medium of Instruction.
