Prerequisites
Evidence of English proficiency is necessary for students wishing to undertake further studies at Swinburne Sarawak after their English language course. Students who do not have evidence of English proficiency can opt to sit for an English Placement Test, either at Swinburne or online at any Swinburne Representative office.


IELTS or equivalent
  • Advanced (EAP) IELTS 5.5 - 6.0 or equivalent
  • Upper-intermediate (EAP) IELTS 5.5 or equivalent
  • Intermediate IELTS 5.0 or equivalent

English Placement Test
Our English Placement Test (EPT) is ideal for you if you do not have an IELTS or other approved international English language test score. You will need to complete an English placement test as part of your application to study at Swinburne.

You can sit for this EPT free-of-charge (for first attempt only) during office hours at our campus or online. However, you must request a booking through our Admissions Office at least 3 days prior the date you intend to take the test. You will then be sent a confirmation email of the test date and time.

The test measures all skills and will take approximately 1 hour to complete. Based on your results, we will recommend the number of weeks you will need to complete ELICOS before you can enrol into your chosen course.

Swinburne reserves the right to conduct a placement test on arrival (or in the first week of your study) to assess all students' level of English. This may affect the duration of your English course if the result shows you need more or fewer weeks than originally offered. This may, in turn, affect your timely entry into future courses.
