| Test Date Confirmation |
|
Within 24 hours of receipt of your application, we will send you an email or call you to inform you that you are confirmed for a particular test date. You will also receive a full confirmation email or letter with full details about two weeks before your already confirmed, scheduled test date. Please contact us only if you have not received a full confirmation email or letter by one week before your scheduled test date. If you have provided an email address on your application form, then all correspondence will be by email. Please check your email regularly, including a careful check of your junk mail box. |
| Application Deadline |
|
Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and does not guarantee a first choice of test date. It is therefore important that you register as early as possible since there is limited capacity for each test date. Test dates are normally full about one week before the date. Applications are processed in the order that they are received and candidates’ speaking test times are scheduled in the order that applications are received, throughout the test day afternoon.
The application form asks you to complete first and second choice test dates. Please complete both boxes for first and second choice test dates. If your first test date choice is not available on receipt of your application, we will automatically schedule you for your second test date choice. You must therefore be available to take the test on both your first and second choice test dates. If neither the first nor second test choice date is available, we will contact you to arrange a convenient test date. |
| Test Schedule |
|
Candidates are expected to arrive at the test center no later than 8:30 am. Doors will open and registration will begin at 8:00 am. Passports are required on the day of the test. No other form of identification is accepted. The test begins at 9 am and the total test time is 2 hours 45 minutes (Listening, Reading and Writing). The Speaking test is scheduled on the same afternoon at any time between 12:15 pm and 4:00pm. You should therefore be prepared to remain at the test center the whole day.
Please leave personal items (such as cell phones, cameras, iPods, calculators) at home or in your vehicle as you will not be able to take them into the test room. You do not need to bring pencils, erasers or pencil sharpeners, as these are provided to you in the test room. You are allowed to bring into the test room, if required, up to: 2 pens, 2 pencils, 1 eraser, 1 pencil sharpener, drinking water in a transparent bottle, reading glasses if needed (no case). If you need other forms of liquid or food in the test room for medical reasons, you should request permission from the IELTS Test Administrator on duty before the test starts. Please let us know well before the test date if you have any questions regarding what is and what is not permitted in the test room. |
| Cancellation and Test Transfer |
|
Requests for cancellation or postponement of the test should be made in writing. Candidates may request a test day cancellation more than five weeks prior to the selected test date and receive a full refund, less a $35 administrative charge. A candidate who cancels a test within the 5-week period prior to a test date will receive no refund. Failure to appear for the test without notification, or arriving too late on test day to be admitted for the test, are considered cancellations and no refund will be issued.
Candidates who wish to transfer their test date within the five weeks prior to the test will be considered a cancellation and will forfeit the test fee. Candidates will have to pay the entire test fee again to register on a different date, either at the same or at a different center.
Candidates seeking cancellation or transfer within the five-week period prior to the test date can receive a refund or transfer without charge if they can provide evidence that their ability to take the test has been affected by serious illness or cause. A Test Day Refund/Transfer form should be requested from the test center and must be completed and returned not more than five working days after the test date, with full supporting documentation, before refunds or transfers can be considered. Refunds are paid by check and are made within one month of the refund being agreed upon. |
| Test Results |
|
Test results are mailed by regular United States Postal Service (USPS) mail 13 calendar days after the test. If, for example, a candidate takes the test on Saturday 15th, then the results will be mailed on Friday 28th. Results can only be issued by regular mail or be given to the candidate in person at the test center where they took the test. Candidates can arrange for express shipping of their results at the cost of $30 (within the U.S.) $70 (international) for express service. Express shipping requests must be made before the 13th day after the test. Results will not be issued earlier than 13 calendar days after the test day under any circumstances.
Candidates wishing to pick up their results in person need to arrange this with the test center before the 13th day after the test and need to bring the same passport that was used for identification on test day. If the candidate wishes to nominate another person to pick up their results, this needs to be arranged with the test center before the 13th day. The nominated person needs to bring:
An original letter from the candidate authorizing the pick-up.
The nominated person’s own valid passport to be used for identification purposes.
A photocopy of the candidate’s passport (the same passport used on test day).
The candidate will automatically receive a Test Report Form to the address provided on their application form. Only ONE Test Report Form is sent to the candidate. On his/her application form, the candidate may request up to five additional Test Report Forms to be sent to academic institutions, government agencies, professional bodies and /or employers (but not to an individual at a residential address). These Test Report Forms are mailed directly to the receiving organization from the test center, or made available for electronic download, on the 13th day. Requests in writing (letter, fax, or email) for additional Test Report Forms to be mailed may be made at any time up to two years after the test date. There is an administrative charge of $15 for each additional Test Report Form requested more than one month after the test date. Additional Test Report Forms cannot be sent more than two years after the test date.
Once candidates have completed their application for a test, paid the test fee and attached all necessary documents, there is a $5 fee to change the candidates mailing address.
Test centers are not permitted to give out test results over the telephone, by email or by fax to either candidates or receiving organizations. |
| Enquiry on Results |
|
Candidates who are not satisfied with their results may request to apply for a rescoring of the test (called Enquiry on Results) at the center where they took the test. This application must be made within six weeks of the test date. The candidate can choose which modules to be re-marked (one, two, three or all of Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking).
There is a fee for this service of $120 plus shipping. If the score on any module that is re-marked is increased, there is a full refund. If there is no change in test scores, no refund is received. The Enquiry on Results process takes up to six weeks from the point that test material is sent from the test center to the UK to be rescored. |
