Courses, Fees, Entry Requirements and No IELTS Option
Global College Malta is a European-accredited higher education institution offering foundation, undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programmes to international students.
Located in Malta, an English-speaking European country, the college provides career-focused programmes in business, management, marketing, accountancy, information technology, tourism, health and social care, logistics and other professional areas.
One of the main advantages for international applicants is that IELTS is not compulsory for every student. Applicants may be able to apply using an acceptable Medium of Instruction letter, commonly known as an MOI letter, instead of IELTS.
Apply Without IELTS
International students who do not have an IELTS certificate may still be considered for admission to Global College Malta.
The college accepts:
- IELTS with a minimum overall score of 5.5; or
- An acceptable Medium of Instruction letter; or
- Another approved English-language qualification.
Therefore, students who previously completed their education in English may be able to apply without taking IELTS by providing an official MOI letter from their school, college or university.
The MOI letter should confirm that the applicant’s previous qualification was taught and assessed in English.
Acceptance of an MOI letter remains subject to document verification, the admission interview and final approval by Global College Malta.
