Now clear TOEFL to get into Andhra Pradesh Universities.
With several foreign students failing in the universities in Andhra Pradesh, the state government has decided to make it compulsory for foreign students to pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) to pursue courses in the state Universities.
KC Reddy, Chairman of Andhra Pradesh state council for higher education, told a media organisation that owing to the current situation it has been proposed that students who wish to pursue courses from the universities in Andhra Pradesh will have to pass the TOEFL and the score from the test will be taken into consideration while giving admissions.
He also said that the proposal would be raised before chancellor and Governor ESL Narasimhan at the next Vice-Chancellors’ Conference.
However, the proposal remains debatable as many of the foreign students, whose mother tongue is not English, do not even have a working knowledge of English to be able to pursue studies in the State’s Universities.
