British Council

A UK higher education from home

Not everyone can travel abroad to pursue their ambition of a degree from a UK university. So we're here to help you earn that highly respected qualification, from Britain’s leading universities, without leaving the country.   

We’ll look after the whole process, from providing the exam venue and professionally trained supervisors to having your exams processed by the exam board. All you need to do is prepare for your exam and turn up on exam day. 

Who we partner with

We work with several institutions in the UK as well across the world. We administer exams on behalf of different institutions and universities in the UK.

We also administer exams on behalf of institutions across the world such as Australia, Singapore and South Africa. For more information on other institutions for your exam contact us. 

How do you register?

It’s easy to register for your university exams. 

  1. First, get in touch with your education institution and register your exam directly with them. 
  2. Once your exam place has been confirmed you should contact us.
  3. You need to do this at least one month before your exam. 

How much will it cost?

Our fees do not include costs charged by the exam board. Please get in touch with the board to discuss their costs.  

For our local examination fees please contact us.

Special arrangements

If you have any special arrangements, please get in touch with us at least eight weeks before submitting your application. You should include any supporting documents, such as a medical certificate, with your exam registration paperwork.
