A new and significant amendment in Canada’s Student Direct Stream (SDS) has been the talking point for study abroad aspirants. In a recent announcement, Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced the acceptance of four new English language test scores along with the existing language test results for the country’s Student Direct Stream (SDS) applications. Among these 4 newly accepted test scores are PTE Academic and TOEFL iBT Test. These test results will be accepted from August 10, 2023.

PTE & TOEFL are the leading English language proficiency tests. These tests are widely accepted by numerous institutions around the world as a demonstration of the English language ability of the test takers.
