Requirements for Australian language upgrading classes.

More than 90% of the students studying in Australia have to learn the language for a period of time before they can take the main course. On the one hand, there are relatively few China students whose general English level directly meets the language requirements of Australian universities; On the other hand, there is still a certain gap between the domestic language environment and Australia. Even if students can get English scores that meet the requirements of the school, some students are willing to study in Australia for a few weeks as a transitional environment so that they can enter the main courses smoothly in the future.

Among the students who study languages in Australia, except those who go directly to Australia to study languages without providing English scores, most of the students who study undergraduate or master's degrees in Australia want to study the main courses without taking IELTS or TOEFL. This kind of language course is usually called language direct class. Generally speaking, entering a language upgrading class in a university requires students' English scores. Because the TOEFL score has just been recognized by the Australian Immigration Bureau, the English requirements of language upgrading classes are mostly based on IELTS scores.

Let's take the University of Sydney as an example to introduce the relevant requirements of its language upgrading class: the language center of the University of Sydney is called CET (English Teaching Center), and its language upgrading class is called DEC (Direct Entrance Course). Students apply for courses with the most weeks in DEC 10 and DEC 15.

The entry requirement of DEC 10 week is that all events meet the language requirements, but the total score is still 0.5 points. For example, the IELTS requirement of the university course is 6.5, the single item is not less than 6.0, the total score of students is 6.0, and the single item is not less than 6.0, so you can get10 Weeksdec; If the IELTS requirement of the course is 7.0 and the single item is not less than 6.0, students must come up with a total score of 6.5 and a single item is not less than 6.0 to match the DEC of 10 week.

The admission requirement for DEC 15 week is that the total score of IELTS is less than 0.5, and each item is not less than 5.0. For example, the IELTS requirement of the school for this major is 6.5, with no less than 6.0. Students will think that the total score is 6.0, but if listening, speaking, reading and writing are less than 6.0 but not less than 5.0, DEC 15 weeks will be given. If the IELTS requirement of the major is a total score of 7.0, and the individual item is not less than 6.0, and the students think that it is 6.5, and the individual item is not less than 5.0 (but at least one item is less than 6.0), the DEC of 15 weeks will be assigned.

Therefore, the DEC of 15 week or 10 week mainly depends on personal achievements, especially writing achievements.

University of Melbourne, University of Queensland, Australian National University and so on. There are strict requirements for entering the language promotion class. However, some schools are not so strict with the requirements of language direct promotion classes. No matter what the IELTS score is, as long as they pass the requirements of the Australian Immigration Bureau, they can be assigned to the language direct promotion class, that is, they can enter the main course directly after studying the courses prescribed by the language school without providing IELTS or TOEFL scores.
