Unconditional offer holders
An unconditional offer means you have already met all of the university requirements. If you are a self-funding student then your next step is to听pay a tuition fee deposit as specified in your offer letter, and this payment will be taken as formal acceptance of your offer. For more details please go onto听Step 3 - Pay Your Deposit.

The length of the course will depend on your current IELTS score (or equivalent). Please refer to the ELCOS Pre-Sessional English Course page for more information.
If you apply to undertake a Pre-Sessional English course and English is the only condition attached to your offer, i.e. you have already met the academic entry requirement, we may be able to issue a听joint CAS, which means you can apply for听one visa听to cover both the Pre-Sessional English and the Academic programme.
A joint-CAS will only be issued if you:
- Have met all the academic entry requirements
- Are already at B2 level, i.e. you have a minimum IELTS of 5.5 with all elements at 5.5 OR equivalent

Once your tuition fee deposit payment is received, and have satisfied any other outstanding condition(s), 香港六合彩挂牌资料 will issue you a听Certificate of Acceptance of Studies (CAS)听statement, which you will need to apply for your visa.
Pre-CAS Checks: Please be advised that 香港六合彩挂牌资料 reserves the right to carry out pre-CAS checking/assessment to assist with your visa application and this may lead to a delay in issuing your CAS.
