English language proficiency & Minimum scores

To gain admission into course students must demonstrate English language proficiency. Students must show certified proof of their proficiency or proof of having passed an English Language Test in the last two years. IELTS is the preferred test for English proficiency.

International English Language Testing System (IELTS) - A total score of 5.5 with a minimum score of 5.0 in each component is required. Some courses require higher English test scores. Results of other testing systems may be accepted subject to availability of current documentation. Certified copies of IELTS certificates are required with this application.

Academic qualifications & Recognition of Prior Learning

SITCM offers courses at different levels. Different academic qualifications are required for each level. For more course information details see the relevant course outline or our web site. Enrolling students can apply for recognition of prior learning (RPL) for whole competencies and up to a limit of 50% of the course they enrol in. Note that the awarding does not shorten the overall course duration as students will be required to participate in further practical clinic time due to the nature and structure of the courses.
