ISLAMABAD – South Asia saw influx of young learners who are travelling to UK, US, Europe and other first world countries, for top-notch education, global career opportunities, and scholarships. Many universities now ended IELTS requisite for students studying in English-medium institutions.
This change cuts barriers and opens doors for Pakistani students who may find IELTS challenging due to language skills or exam costs. To take advantage of these opportunities, students should carefully check university English requirements, consider alternative English proficiency tests like Duolingo, maintain strong academic records in English, and explore scholarship options.
With travel ease, the future outlook for Pakistani students studying abroad without IELTS remains promising, but only if you find right institution and degree.
