English for Academic Purposes (EAP)

What is EAP?

English for Academic Purposes is designed for students interested in studying at Vocational school or University in Australia.

What is the benefit of doing this specific course?

Most of the English schools in Australia have direct entry to Vocational schools or Universities. Students will be automatically accepted if they have successfully completed the EAP course and will not need to undertake the IELTS exam.

What is its difference?

If you choose to do the EAP module, you have to show your commitment with your studies. It is extremely important that you don't skip any class as you will learn skills that will help with your further studies. The basic skills are essay & report writing and presentation skills.

Also, EAP is graded on the IELTS band scale.

What do I need to get into Vocational/Universities?

In order to be accepted at Vocational schools, the candidate have to show that has successfully completed the EAP 2 or a minimum of 5.5 on General IELTS. 

For Universities, the candidate need a minimum of EAP 3 or 6.0 on Academic IELTS.
