IELTS required ?

Post by nemo999 » Thu Mar 15, 2018 1:09 pm

Hi All,

I was interviewed by the university on phone and offered unconditional offer from university of Kingston for a masters course.

I had 81 marks in English (Std 12th - India) .

I have been told that I don't need to give IELTS English language exam.

I am slightly confused because I was told that Visa officer would certainly look at english language proficiency.

Can someone please clarify?

Thanks in advance.

Hi
Is it wrong to ask question on behalf of family? If yes, I apologies and wave goodbye to this forum.

Just remember, not everyone is tech savvy or has time to go on forum and ask question. It is moral responsibility of others to help who are near and dear, isn't it ?

Might be your moral responsibility but you could have simply stated who you are asking for as you are likely aware that members check past posting history for a better understanding of circumstances.

I agree, I should have stated, my apologies. Since this is an anonymous forum, answers are more important than who is asking and for whom IMHO.

The university confirms English language proficiency on the CAS.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
