What happens if you don't have IELTS?
We understand that it is not always possible to take an IELTS test. We have therefore developed our own English Language Test which has been used over the last few years throughout the world. It is equivalent to IELTS and the results are recognized by the British Embassy.
If you would like to find out more about the test, please
contact the China Office.
Are you worried that your IELTS score is lower than what we require?
Well, don't be. The University provides Pre-sessional English Programmes for those who need to improve their English before starting their course.
