Additional information:
Native speakers of English do not need to provide proof of their English language skills. Please note that we consider you a native speaker if English is an official language in your country. If one of the official languages of your country is English, please do not include an English-language certificate in your application. Instead, when prompted to upload a language certificate, include a copy of a national ID, such as a passport. Please note that it is NOT possible to use a BA diploma in English as evidence of language skill, even if that BA program was taught through the medium of English.
