Academic English Program

Students from around the world want to enroll with universities and colleges in English speaking countries, including Australia. To enroll, they first need to demonstrate their English language level is high enough for their course. For many, taking an exam like IELTS to do that just doesn’t work. For many, exams make them feel anxious and they don’t perform well. What’s worse is that exams like IELTS don’t prepare students for real study in English.The Universal English College Academic English Program gives students an intensive program of study of the English knowledge and skills needed for study in Australia or another English-speaking country. The course also helps students develop the ‘academic literacies’ needed – note taking, research, writing reference lists and annotated bibliographies, participating in tutorials and lectures, and much more.Students who successfully complete the Academic English Program won’t just have massively improved the English and academic skills though. More than 50 Australian institutions – universities and colleges – recognise Universal English College qualifications for direct entry to their courses. That means graduates won’t need to take IELTS to get entry into those courses.
