In addition to the certificate given to the candidate, candidates can request on their application forms (Section 24), that up to 5 copies of the results be sent to receiving institutions. Receiving institutions are local academic Institutions (e.g. universities) and overseas institutions not registered to view candidate results online. Registered institutions only receive results online; here is a list of registered institutions. Unfortunately we cannot send to local institutions or departments (e.g. immigration agents).

What will happen before the Exam?
Candidates will receive notification/confirmation either by e-mail or telephone at least a week before the exam dates.
In the event that you do not receive the notification, please contact the British Council office where you registered.
Exam dates cannot be deferred or transferred and fees are non-refundable.
