It is recommended that students who wish to enroll to the M.A. in Islamic Studies program at RGS, but have not scored high enough on English Proficiency Exams (6 on the IELTS or 60-78 on the TOEFL), enroll to the Academic English courses with RGS before applying to M.A. program.
*Even if a student meets the English requirements for RGS, they may still be required to take a proficiency exam (IELTS or TOEFL) for Charles Sturt University.
Assessment Test
After Completing the application form for the English Language Program, prospective students will be contacted by an RGS teacher to schedule an assessment test. This assessment is designed to evaluate the student’s current level of English speaking and writing ability, to answer any questions the student may have, and to help guide them to the course that will be best suited to their ability and goals.
The Assessment test consists of two parts:
- Oral proficiency interview (OPI)
