Accepting Cambridge English Exams for Admissions

With the cancellation of events and conferences we are taking many of our activities online. We wanted to share with you how we can support you during these challenging times.

As COVID-19 continues to spread, many of you have contacted us for information on how exams will be impacted and what can be done to minimise disruption to international students, especially those from China. We are monitoring the situation with the spread of Novel Coronavirus very closely. Our top priority is to ensure the health and safety of candidates and their families, and of the staff in our centres. We will do everything we can to minimise disruption for candidates, parents and teachers, while complying fully with international best practice and the advice of national and local healthcare authorities. Further information on test suspensions, as well as Cambridge English testing options, can be found below. We also publish regular updates.

Choose exams you can trust for your admission requirements that offer more than a snapshot of a student’s level of English. Cambridge English Qualifications are in-depth exams which are each focused on a level of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). They provide reliable proof of language ability and demonstrate real-life communication skills, reducing the risk that a student's English does not match expectations.

For undergraduate and graduate admissions we recommend C1 Advanced, a high-level exam which gives students the English skills needed for academic success. The exam was established in 1991 and has now been taken globally by millions of international students. Accepting C1 Advanced can help you to reach international applicants from beyond your usual range of countries.

Institutions around the world are already using this AI powered, online based, adaptive test as an alternative to determine English language proficiency levels of students once they arrive. This is a test that has recently been launched in China, a strategic priority for us. And to reinforce our commitment, as an organisation, to innovate and lead we are now in the process of integrating a remote proctoring solution with Linguaskill.
