IELTS may not be a mandatory requirement in all institutions yet it is needed to skip some hurdles before studying. Applying without IELTS has its own challenges which are somewhat difficult to overcome in terms of expenses and time and the risk associated.

• You have to enroll in the Foundation or, Pathway course.
• The Courses are expensive and living costs will add-up
• No ‘Credit’ will be earned towards the main course (Undergrad/ Postgrad/ Diploma)
• No work permit will be provided during Foundation or, Pathway course
• You will need to show a high amount of funds & additional documents to show while applying for the visa
• If you cannot finish Pathway or foundation course then visa will be cancelled and student will be removed and cannot apply for visa again.
