If you are applying for a Student Visa at a higher education institution to enter directly onto a bachelor or postgraduate degree at a university that is a Student Visa Sponsor, you must meet the English language level set by the institution. All British universities and colleges accept IELTS Academic results. This means you may not need to take an IELTS for UKVI Academic test but can submit an IELTS Academic result.
