We aim to put all internationally known schools
online within 2 working days. However, we may need to ask
lesser-known schools to prove that the information provided is
genuine and the school is officially recognised.
No. We aim to provide an unrivalled service to
our website visitors, prospective students and agents, therefore it
is our policy to enforce strict regulations for schools that wish to
be listed on our web pages.
To qualify for listing on our search engine you
must be:
- a language school or educational institution which provides
language courses or certificate or diploma courses
- established for at least 2 years
- officially accredited
In addition, schools in countries which require
entry visas from some overseas students must meet visa requirements.
For example: in the UK, a school must be listed by the DfES; in the
USA, a school must be authorised to issue I-20 documents.
Every application is carefully examined before
acceptance. Before we decide, we may require the following documents
for inspection:
* Course brochures and marketing material
* References from internationally recognised agencies or other
institutions you work with
* Certificate or other proof of official recognition and
accreditation
* Evidence that your institution has been established for at least 2
years.
