The ACU English Test can be used by both international and domestic students to meet the language entry requirements for most courses.

International students

If you have applied for a diploma or degree program at ACU and you have a letter of offer from the University, you can take the ACU English Test as a means of demonstrating your English language proficiency. Check your required level on English proficiency.

Domestic students

If you are a domestic student, you can take the ACU English Test as a means of demonstrating your English language proficiency. To do so, when registering for the test you will need to let us know the name of the course you have applied for.

Note: The ACU Test is not accepted in order to meet the English language entry requirement for postgraduate Psychology courses and Bachelor of Nursing and associated double degrees.
