International Academy for the Study of Aids in Culture

English Proficiency Requirements for International Students

The working languages of Enkidu Magazine, AIDSinCULTURE.org and the International Society for Cultural History and Cultural Studies are English and Spanish. The Study Center offers courses both in English and Castillian. Excellent command of the language of instruction in the course that you sign up for is therefore required. Due to the international character of our activities and the multilingual and multinational composition of our community of students and staff, English tends to be the most used language for internal communication in the organisation and a good command of English is required of all students attending the Study Center. International students who are not native speakers of English must document their proficiency in English. 

We recommend international students to document their profiency in English by taking one of the following internationally recognised tests:

TOEFL - Test of English as a Foreign Language

IELTS - International English Language Testing Service

For admission to the programs at the Aids in Culture Study Center at the  post-graduate or Doctorate levels, a minimum score of 500 (paper-based) or 170 (computer-based) or 60 (internet-based) is required on the TOEFL test, or a minimum score of 5.0 from the IELTS (academic) test. From time to time, our center offers preparatory courses in English for international students who want to prepare for one of these tests. If you would like to sign up for one of these English courses, please, contact Agustin Villalpando, coordinator for the Enkidu Center for English as a Foreign Language ( avs@enkidumagazine.com  ) 

Test information

TOEFL is administered either as a paper-based or a computer-based test. Computer-based testing is available year-round in many locations throughout the world. Paper-based testing is available on a regular basis in locations where computer-based testing is not available.
