Which free study abroad tools should I use first?

Start with the tool that matches your next step. If you are choosing a university, use the cost estimator. If an English test is next, take the English Coach placement test. If an interview is coming, try a mock interview. If you have just been accepted, read the settling-in guide.

How the tools work

The tools are practice aids. Scores in the IELTS tools are practice marks and not official IELTS scores. Several tools keep your answers only in your own browser, and the mock interviews do not give model answers. Read each tool page for its own rules.

Tools coming soon

We are adding more tools. Register your interest and we will tell you when they open.
