English Language Preparation

Achieving the necessary English language proficiency is a vital step before embarking on your main course at UWE Bristol. If you’re not from one of the few exempted countries, you’ll need to provide proof of your English language skills. To help you meet this requirement, UWE International Educational Services (UWEIES) offers a range of tailored solutions, including specialised workshops, English Language Tests (ELT), Pre-Sessional English (PSE) courses, and more.

English Language Test (ELT)

UWE Bristol’s English Language Test (ELT) mirrors the format and structure of the IELTS Academic test, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of your English proficiency. The test evaluates all four essential skills – listening, reading, writing, and speaking, providing individual scores for each component and an overall result. Students take the written components, including listening, reading, and writing, using cutting-edge online examination software, which takes approximately 3 hours and 10 minutes. If they successfully meet the entry requirements, they will be invited to participate in a speaking test with one of our experienced examiners. This thorough assessment provides a clear understanding of your language abilities, preparing you for success in your academic journey.
