Documents to Submit

English proficiency test

Question

I use English everyday in my work and have no problem with communication. Do I still need to submit an English proficiency test score?

Answer

We need an objective evaluation of your English proficiency, so unless you meet the exemption requirements, you will need to submit your English proficiency test score.


Question

Will my application be accepted if I submit my English proficiency test score after I pass the selection process?

Answer

To assess many applicants fairly, all applicants need to submit all their documents including the English proficiency test score at the time of application.


Question

Does my country of citizenship (or the country where I graduated from university) exempt me from the test score requirement?
