Bond University's English program is a course for building English skills, and it has its own entry route through an English test. It is not a general English score gate for degree study. Applicants can enter with one of five tests, and the program runs on campus at Gold Coast in four listed intakes.
What the program is
The program is listed as English at Bond University, under the study area Academic and English Pathways. Its CRICOS code is 103878M, and its type is Other Non-AQF, so it is not an AQF-level qualification.
Its stated aim is to develop spoken and written English to the level required to study at an Australian university.
Which tests give entry
Entry to the English program is via one of the following:
- IELTS Academic
- PTE Academic
- TOEFL iBT (Test of English as a Foreign Language, Internet Based Test)
- Cambridge English: Advanced
- Pearson Versant Test of English
Only one is needed. The list is the set of accepted routes, so an applicant who already holds one of these tests can start from that result.
Where and when it runs
All listed offerings are on-campus at the Gold Coast Campus:
- September 2026
- January 2027
- May 2027
- September 2027
Teaching terms are scheduled to match Bond University's three-semester-per-year study schedule. A student who finishes the English program can therefore line up with the university's own calendar.
