Student FAQ

How early should I apply?

Start 12-18 months before your intended start date. Scholarship deadlines are often 6-12 months before the course begins.

Do I need IELTS or TOEFL?

Most English-speaking countries require proof of English. IELTS 6.0-7.0 is typical. Some accept Duolingo or other tests.

What if my visa is rejected?

Universities often defer your admission. Address the rejection reason and reapply. Consult an immigration advisor if needed.
