Not always. If you have completed your Bachelor's degree where the instruction language was English (like in India engineering colleges), you might get an IELTS exemption. You just need to show a certificate from your old college saying you studied in English. But checking specific requirements on universityadmissions.se is important.

Yes, students can study at the AUD Dubai without IELTS. However, students would need to prove English proficiency in a different way. This can be done by either submitting scores for other tests like TOEFL, EmSAT, or English Placement Tests. Waivers may be given based on how well students have done in their past studies, especially the English exam.

Shiksha Study Abroad Counsellors can guide students better on how one can waive the English test requirements, FREE of cost.

No, do not use them. Examiners are stricter now and will cut marks if you use generic or memorized essay templates for your answers. You should write natural ideas to get a high score.

Pencils are not allowed anymore. For the IELTS paper-based test you must write all your answers using a pen to ensure they are clear. Please practice your handwriting before test day.

Yes it is very likely. 80% of IELTS test centers now use video call speaking tests instead of face to face interviews with a real examiner. It will be easier to give IELTS speaking test now.

No, the main rules are the same. The official bodies like IDP and British Council have not announced any big changes to the IELTS exam format. Stick to your normal study plan for now.

In the USA and Canada, TAs teach undergraduate classes. Therefore, universities are very strict about the Speaking Section. Even if your overall score is 7.5, a low speaking score (below 7.0) can disqualify you from this funding.

Yes British Council IELTS Award is a famous scholarship specifically for students who score a minimum of 6.5. Many private organizations also offer small grants to students who score an 8.0 or 9.0.
