Is there any IELTS or PTE waiver available for my BA degree from an open university in New Zealand?
It depends on the university's policy in New Zealand. Most universities require proof of English proficiency, but some may offer an IELTS or PTE waiver if your BA degree from an open university was taught entirely in English.
To be considered for a waiver, you typically need:
- A Medium of Instruction (MOI) letter confirming your degree was completed in English
- Supporting documents such as transcripts or syllabi showing English as the language of assessment
Open university degrees may be subject to extra scrutiny, and waiver policies vary by institution and program.
