To apply for the IELTS exam at Melton College, complete an application form and send it to us with a cheque or postal order, payable to "Melton College". The fee is £100. You can download a printable copy of the application form by clicking on the link below. Applications will take approximately one week to process. We will send confirmation of your exam date by email. Please check your email account before contacting Melton College about your exam application.

The exam places are allocated on a strictly first come, first served basis. We are not able to reserve exam places by telephone. All details in the above table are kept up-to-date; however, you should include a second-choice date on the application form as exam dates may fill up whilst your application is in the post.

All candidates must arrive at the exam location by 9:30. For a copy of a map, including advice on possible accommodation options for candidates spending the night in York, please click here. The speaking element of all tests will normally take place on the same day as the written elements of the exam. If we cannot offer you a speaking exam on the same day, we will contact you to offer an alternate test date. All results will be issued two weeks after the test date. You can contact the IELTS Exams office on 01904 670920 between 10:00 and 16:00 Monday to Friday.

Important Advice Regarding the Completion of the IELTS Application Form

• You do not need to attach additional documentation to the application form. Passport photocopies are not necessary, but you must bring your passport to the exam.
• You must provide two recent, passport-sized photographs. Private candidates should not complete the box next to the photographs marked 'Please return to'.
• Question 1 - Please include a first and second choice exam dates.
• Question 5 - One copy of the Test Report Form will be sent to this address.
• Question 7 - Confirmation of your exam place will be sent by e-mail. Please write the e-mail address clearly.
• Question 10 - Only candidates from EU member state countries can use ID cards for identification, otherwise you must write your passport number. If you do not have a passport, you may use an IND Smart Card issued by the UK Home Office. No other forms of identification are acceptable. You must bring the original ID to the exam. Photocopies are not acceptable.
• Question 16 - Decide which exam module you want to take: Academic or General Training. For more information about the difference between the two modules, please click here or consult the 'Information for Candidates' document mentioned below. The General Training module is only available on the dates marked in red on the table above. The Academic module is available for all exam dates.
• Question 17 - Melton College only offers the pen and paper test.
• Question 24 - Give details of any institutions you want to receive a copy of your Test Report Form. Addresses entered here must be for recognised institutions, e.g. universities or employers. Personal addresses will be ignored. If you do not want to send additional copies of your Test Report Form, please leave this question blank.
• You must sign and date the application form. Incomplete application forms will be returned by post. Please check that you have completed all parts of the application form before you send it.

We recommend that all candidates read the official 'Information for Candidates' document before sitting the IELTS exam. It contains valuable information about the application process, exam format, example questions, and a description of the IELTS results band scale. You can download and print a copy here.
