Study in Thailand
There are many programmes offered by Thai universities that are internationally recognised and widely accepted. Studying one of these programmes in Thailand will give you the opportunity to further your studies in an English-medium learning environment and affordable country.
In order to enter an international program, you will be required to demonstrate your English language proficiency. Many of the universities ask applicants to take a range of English assessment exams. However, if you have obtained a satisfactory IELTS score, you are likely to be exempted from these exams.
Study Visa for Thailand
Before applying for a Student Visa, international students must already have been accepted by their chosen university. As part of your visa application, you will be required to submit your Letter of Admission, printed on the official letterhead of the appropriate university department and signed by the respective managing official. This letter serves to confirm that you have been accepted for the program and invites you to begin your studies on a certain date.
In order to be eligible for a Student Visa, international students must register for at least 3 courses per semester. A Student Visa is normally valid for one year. However, upon first application, international students will receive a Student Visa valid for 90 days. This can be extended without having to leave the country upon presentation of relevant documents.
Why do an increasing number of candidates wishing to study in Thailand choose IELTS?
(1) Demonstrate your ability to communicate in a face-to-face Speaking test.
Unlike other language proficiency exams where you are required to talk to a machine during your Speaking test, IELTS gives you the opportunity to talk with an examiner in a relaxing and supported environment.
(2) Develop skills relevant to your studies and student life.
IELTS places emphasis on your ability to communicate in authentic situations. There is no need to memorise large amounts of unnecessary vocabulary or grammar. Rather, IELTS includes learning how to communicate in a range of scenarios you will encounter in learning environments. This will empower you to reach your full potential in your studies and student life.
Work in Thailand
Language skills are key to a successful career. Many employers require evidence of your English language proficiency, so being able to prove your skills is an important part of the job-hunting and promotion processes.
A great way to do this is by taking IELTS, a highly-popular English language proficiency test which is recognised by many multinational organisations, including investment banks, law firms, accounting companies and insurance companies.
