The University English programme is specifically designed to help SPM, IGCSE, UEC and other students prepare for academic studies at university so that they can reach their full potential.

On successful completion of the programme, students will be able to:
• Speak and converse confidently in English.
• Write well-structured academic reports and essays.
• Present clearly and with impact.
• Listen and communicate effectively in individual and group settings.
• Solve problems and conduct independent research.
Students will find the transition from school to university life easier.

The University of Reading, through the International Study and Language Institute (ISLI), has a long-standing reputation in providing English language support. The University English programme has the following key features:
• Full-time over 10 weeks, with 21 hours of study per week.
• Small class sizes allow for a high-level of staff-student engagement.
• Interactive, practice-based learning.
• Delivered by experienced instructors.
• Extensive learning resources are provided.
• Conducted on the University’s branch campus in Iskandar Puteri.
A report certificate at the end of the programme will indicate one’s improvement in level of English.

The University English programme is ideal for those about to enter university, including:
• SPM, IGCSE, O-level and equivalent holders looking to study for a foundation award.
• STPM, UEC, A-levels, IB and equivalent holders looking to study for an undergraduate degree.
The programme is also designed for students who wish to enrol in a programme at the University of Reading, either for study at the UK or Malaysia campus, but do not currently meet the required level of English.

TEEP is used as a final examination with the University English Programme but can also be taken as a stand-alone test. Grades are expressed using the bands 0-9 (in the same way as IELTS grades). TEEP is used as an official qualification to meet the English Language requirements for programmes at the University of Reading.

A screening test is necessary if you do not have a minimum language score from any recognised test or examination.
