Testing your English language proficiency

The conservatoires that you choose will tell you what standard of English, both written and spoken, you need in order to take part in lectures, tutorials and seminars. If English is not your first language, most conservatoires will want you to have a qualification in English or to take a specified test in English. This will show the conservatoire that you will be able to cope with the course and your studies. To find out which English language proficiency tests are acceptable, you should contact the admissions office or international office for each conservatoire that you wish to apply to.
