English Language Requirements

All Swinburne courses available to international students require that a student possess a certain level of English language proficiency.

English language skills are usually measured by the International English Language Test Score (IELTS) or the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score. Minimum requirements vary depending on the course being applied for.

If you are applying to study at Swinburne, you may be eligible for a TOEFL iBT voucher, which means you can take the TOEFL iBT test for free. Find out more.

Under certain circumstances students may not require an IELTS or TOEFL score.
