The preparation course does not register the learner for the official IELTS test.
RSG provides general information and signposting, not regulated immigration advice.
Assessment in practice
Practice tasks and tutor feedback are preparation activities, not the official IELTS assessment.
The official test is booked separately through an authorised IELTS test provider or test centre.

Questions before enrolment
Frequently asked questions
Open each question to review the controlled answer. Ask RSG to confirm provider terms that may have changed.
Is this course an IELTS qualification?
No. It is an English-language and IELTS preparation course. Only the official IELTS test produces a band score and Test Report Form.
Which IELTS test does the course prepare me for?
Online Business School must confirm whether the current course covers Academic, General Training, IELTS for UKVI or more than one route. The correct test depends on the requirement set by the receiving organisation.
Is the official IELTS test included in the course fee?
No verified evidence shows that it is included. The official test should be treated as a separate booking and fee with an authorised provider.
Will I achieve band 5.5 or another target score?
No score can be guaranteed. The result depends on the learner’s language ability and performance in the official test.
What happens if I cancel, withdraw or request a refund?
Online Business School's current cancellation, withdrawal and refund terms apply. Ready Study Global does not set or administer the provider's refund decisions. Ask us for the current OBS terms before enrolment or payment.
