Got sponsorship Do I need to write ENGLISH eligibility test?

[Kuttan]

Hi Experts

I am going back to India within 2 months. I have currently ICT one year visa. It wil expire in 2 months. I got a sponsor here. I wish to come back. I am planning to apply for Tier 2 general visa.

Do I need to appear for English Language Test. I did my masters in computer applications. It was full time course. But the university is not listed in UKBA site. Is it okay if I arrange a letter from my University saying the course was fully in ENGLISH?
OR do I need to appear for tests like IELTS?


-kind regards

if you could arrange a letter from your university that can assure that you studied there and university varifies that then you dont need to do the English Test.
when you do the self assesment test on UKBA site for your visa then they grant you English language points if you have studies in a college or university which is approved as an english language institute as basic
UKBA list of colleges and universities is for Tier 4.

Dear Friend,

Thanks for the reply. I understand that,

A) If I arrange a letter from my University saying I completed my Post Graduate Course fully in English, that will be fine

B) When I did the self assessment test in Points calculator, I missed the 10 Points( Assessment results 0 Points) because my university was NOT listed. So will it be still OK if I get a letter from my University?

-Kind regards

Changing from Tier 2 ICT to Tier 2 General may require 12 month cooling period.
Its worth checking it in detail.
