How to Apply for Fully Funded Scholarships Without IELTS or TOEFL
You may still be eligible for fully funded study-abroad scholarships even if you do not have IELTS or TOEFL. However, “no IELTS required” does not always mean there is no English-language requirement. Some universities accept a Medium of Instruction certificate or an English Proficiency Certificate from your previous school. Others accept alternatives such as PTE Academic, Duolingo English Test, Cambridge English, TOEIC or other approved tests. Requirements differ by scholarship and host university. For example, Chevening may not set a separate English test requirement, but your chosen university can still require proof of proficiency before offering admission. Always confirm the language requirements for your specific programme and request any required certificates early. Do not rely on social-media claims about scholarship language policies. Verify each requirement directly with the scholarship provider and your prospective university before applying.
