English Language Requirement

[SpiderKing]

Hi All,

I have received a letter from university stating that medium of instruction were english in my degree course.

I found one issue for which I would like to seek advice from experts.

The letter head of university do not contain contact details like address, telephone number etc.

It has just university name with university logo, though the letter is signed by examination controller with department's seal.

Could you pls suggest if this is ok to go?

Regards

Hi there

1- If you have not done Bachelor from British University then you have to do IELTS. I did Masters from a UK uni but still I have to do IELTS.

2)- IELTS is valied only for 2 years. In your case it is risky to apply with such old IELTS result.

I would suggest you to go though IELTS again to be on safe side.

hi mahmood,

i dont think u need to take up IELTS as u have done your masters in UK. You can get letter from your university which is enough for your english language requirement. I suggest IELTS for the people who dont have degree from UK.

HERE IS THE EXTRACT FROM GUIDENCE NOTES

'Evidence required
In order to demonstrate the required knowledge of English, you must provide one of the following forms of evidence:
an IELTS Test Report Form, issued in the two years prior to the date that the application was received by Work Permits (UK), at Band 6 or above; or
evidence that you hold a Bachelors degree that was taught in English, and is of an equivalent level to a UK Bachelors degree.

Please note – whilst a Bachelors degree that meets the requirements specified above will normally be accepted for the purposes of satisfying the English language requirement of your application, higher level degrees (such as Masters or PhDs) and professional/vocational qualifications will not. '

T_mahmood is correct
He still need to take IELTS test because he did not do Bachelors degree in the UK. Doing Master's degree in the UK will not be acceptable as prove of english for HSMP.
