Is English proficiency sufficient to study in the UK without IELTS if my education medium was English?

Yes, many UK universities accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate as proof of English proficiency if your previous education was in English, so you may be able to apply without IELTS.

However, acceptance of MOI depends on the university and program - some may still require IELTS or another approved test. For the UK student visa, you usually need to show English proficiency through a recognized exam like IELTS UKVI or PTE UKVI.
