English Language Requirements For International Students

 3. Who Is Exempt From Providing Evidence With Their Visa Application?

Almost every International student needs to meet English language requirements to enrol in a course and to receive a student visa in Australia. But, there are a few exceptions when students don’t need to prove their English language proficiency. 

These exceptions are for the following:

• Students who have completed their studies in the Republic of Ireland, the U.S.A., U.K., New Zealand, Australia or Canada.

• Passport holders and citizens of the U.S.A., U.K., Republic of Ireland or Canada. 

• Defence or Foreign affairs sponsored students.

• Students who appear in a standalone ELICOS program, postgraduate research or full-time in-school studies as the main course. 

• Students who have completed the study at Certificate IV level or higher or completed the Senior Secondary certificate in Australia within two years of applying for a student visa. 

Apart from these students, all other candidates must prove their English language proficiency to study in Australia. 

Undoubtedly, studying in Australia is one of the best ways to experience a unique Aussie lifestyle while learning new skills. 

With world-class universities, English language schools and practical vocational colleges supporting international students, Australia is the first choice of students keen to study abroad. 

According to the University Ranking of Quacquarelli Symonds, the University of New South Wales, The University of Sydney, The Australian National University, The University of Queensland, and the University of Melbourne are among the top 50 best universities in the world. 

So, if you are already proficient in English and want to study at any of these top universities, in that case, you can easily migrate to Australia.
