Even as hundreds of Indian students get ready to start courses at universities around the world during the autumn term of 2021, several major English language campus destinations including Australia, New Zealand and Singapore remain closed due to travel restrictions and closed borders.
However, Canada remains a popular campus destination for Indians even amidst the post Covid-19 uncertainty. In fact, according to official statistics from the Canadian High Commission in Delhi, for the first four months of 2021, nearly 100,000 study permits were issued to international students, up from about 66,000 in the first four months of 2020 and from about 96,000 in the first four months of 2019.

Over seven thousand and three hundred Malawians, with more getting added to the figure, have joined forces in signing a petition whose sole aim is to let the UK government exempt them from undergoing the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) before they can be accepted for studies by their former colonial master arguing it is a no-brainer.
The International English Language Testing System, or IELTS, is an international standardized test of English language proficiency for non-native English language speakers. It is jointly managed by the British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge Assessment English, and was established in 1989.
Each year, Malawians leave for the UK for further studies. And by 2016, over 300 have received full Commonwealth Scholarships since the 1970s.
