<b> English proficiency </b> refers to the ability to read, write, speak, and understand English effectively. It encompasses a range of language skills, including vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and the ability to comprehend spoken and written English in various contexts. High English proficiency means that a person can communicate clearly and confidently in various contexts, such as academic, professional, and social situations. <br> <br> <b> English proficiency </b> is often measured through standardized tests such as IELTS (International English Language Testing System), TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language), Duolingo English test, Cambridge English Qualifications, or other similar exams, especially for non-native speakers who are looking to study, work, or immigrate to English-speaking countries. However, many institutions (Universities) waive this requirement if the student has completed at least three years of study in a school where English was the primary medium of instruction. This policy helps streamline the application process for students already proficient in English through their previous education. <br> <div class="scholarshipTable"> <div class="tdiv">Discover related Scholarships</div> <a class="ta" target="_blank" href= https://www.mkscholars.com/scholarship-details?scholarship-id=44&scholarship-title=STIPENDIUM-HUNGARICUM-SCHOLARSHIP-(FULL-SCHOLARSHIP-IN-EUROPE) > FULL SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY IN EUROPE</a> <a class="ta" target="_blank" href= https://www.mkscholars.com/scholarship-details?scholarship-id=49&scholarship-title=GOVERNMENT-FULL-SCHOLARSHIP-OPPORTUNITY-IN-CHINA-(2025-2026) > GOVERNMENT FULL SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY IN CHINA (2025-2026)</a> <a class="ta" target="_blank" href= https://www.mkscholars.com/scholarship-details?scholarship-id=51&scholarship-title=CALLING-FOR-FULL-SCHOLARSHIP-APPLICATIONS-AT-RICA- > FULL SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY AT RICA</a> <a class="ta" target="_blank" href= https://mkscholars.com/scholarship-details?scholarship-id=48&scholarship-title=GOVERNMENTAL-FULL-SCHOLARSHIP-IN-MAURITIUS > GOVERNMENTAL FULL SCHOLARSHIP IN MAURITIUS</a> <a class="ta" target="_blank" href= https://www.mkscholars.com/scholarship-details?scholarship-id=46&scholarship-title=ALL-UNIVERSITIES-AND-THEIR-SCHOLARSHIPS-IN-RWANDA- > ALL UNIVERSITIES AND THEIR SCHOLARSHIPS IN RWANDA </a> </div> <br> <b> HOW DO I SHOW THE UNIVERSITY THAT I HAVE STUDIED IN THE ENGLISH SYSTEM? </b> <br> <br> There is a letter (document) that the student has to request from the School he has graduated from confirming that the student studied his studies in the English system.

Some institutions may accept standardized tests like Duolingo, IELTS, or others but might also offer waivers if you can prove prior education in an English-speaking system, which is a common policy. Others, such as ALU, may require you to take their own language test, while some universities might not require any proof of English proficiency at all. <br> <br> Therefore, it depends on the university you're applying to and students should carefully review each university’s policies to identify the best path to showcase their English proficiency. This way, you can choose the most suitable way to demonstrate your English proficiency based on their requirements. <br> <br> <b> WATCH A GUIDING VIDEO HERE: </b> <br> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_OJaDBgwsuU?si=YSv93RJupoprkQBZ" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> <br> <br> <br> #Mkscholars <br> #Englishproficiencycertificate <br> #Abroadscholarships <br> #Ielts #Toefel #Duolingotests <br> #Englishstandardizedtests
