IELTS Test an Extra Cost to International Students from Sub Sahara Africa
Are you looking to study abroad and IELTS test is a bother? Read the various ways you can navigate yourself around it and know the universities which do not require one.
Many international students I have worked with over the years know just how annoying it can be to be asked an IELTS test after studying in English in one's entire educational life time. Many of the students have studied in English their entire life time and do not see why they should be subjected to take a test to determine their proficiency in English. I recall when I was about to undertake my studies in South Africa, the Admission Officer called me up for a discussion to determine my level of proficiency. I was also sent an article to read and answer questions. It was a great way of evaluating my English language proficiency without putting any financial strain on me. I think this can be used by universities across the globe or an agency can work with universities to determine their language proficiency at a minimal cost and not the over 200 dollars students have to pay to take the IELTS test. have equally advised students to write to the Admissions Officers to request that the requirement for taking the IELTS test should be waived and in most cases, it has worked. You may want to include a Letter of English Proficiency from your previous university when writing for an IELTS waiver. So you too can try, but remember that it is purely at the discretion of the Admission Officers to waive your requirement.
To ease the stress of those who want to minimise cost cognizant that obtaining a visa can be quite daunting after spending some significant sums, I have listed a few universities in Canada which admit students without the IELTS test.
