In points based calculator when you click on I have a qualification comparable to a UK Bachelor degree that was taught in English. How will you prove that the degree was taught in English. UK Naric will not do the English language assessment. If you cant get the letter then book the CEFR B1 level test.vignezh wrote:I have a Master's degree from India, which I got validated by UK Naric as comparable to UK M.Sc. and I also passed an IELTS test for my intial Tier 1 application. I did NOT submit any letter from University saying the degree was taught in English.
For the ILR, could someone please clarify whether I can produce my Indian Masters degree certificate along with NARIC letter WITHOUT producing a letter from University saying degree was taught in English (I think it wont be possible to get a letter from Univeristy in India within a month while I am in the UK). I can see the points calculator awarding me points for ENGLISH based on this degree.
or
Should I pass an ENGLISH test? Which one is easier to do?
Many thanks in advance...

Sorry but don't agree with you on English reqirement as per my understanding and the moderators comments I have seen the pbs calculator will only award 10points for English if naric believe that the degree was taught in English otherwise I will just give u 30points for education but no points for English...........I have got so many friends who got masters degree and the calculator is giving 30points for qualification but giving 0 points for English mostly Pakistan university degrees............
so I strongly understand if u got 10points for English in calculator with original degree its more than sufficient.....
I have so many ppl here getting ilr just by attaching pbs printout with original degree and haven't seen anybody rejected because he hasn't got the letter from the university that the degree was taught in English.
correct me if I am wrong

English Language Assessment. Extract from UKNaric:
There are three ways that you can score points for English language:
•be a national of a majority English speaking country (a country where most people speak English)
•pass an English language test on the Home Office list of approved English language tests
•hold a degree that is assessed by UK NARIC as being taught solely in English and is equivalent to a United Kingdom Bachelor degree.
How can we help you?
UK NARIC’s English Language Assessment provides an assessment and a statement:
•to confirm whether an individual’s approved English language test meets the required level of English language proficiency (CEFR level C1)
•to confirm whether your degree has been taught solely in English and meets the required level of English language proficiency (CEFR level C1).
English language assessment and statement of comparability are two different services.
Many Thanks

Official reply from Home office
Dear Sir,
Regardless of the fact that the degree was awarded 35 points by the points calculator, unless it has been awarded an additional 10 points for English language, , the print out would not be acceptable as evidence that the degree was taught in English. The applicant could request an English Language Assessment from UK NARIC, or provide a letter from the university, on official letter headed paper, stating that the medium of study was English.
Unless an IELTS qualification has been accepted for an earlier application, it would be invalid for the purposes of a settlement application.
Regards
