We are thrilled to announce a significant development at North South University that promises to enhance our students and faculty’s academic and professional capabilities. The university has collaborated with the British Council through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish the IELTS Corner at our central library. This initiative is set to streamline the preparation process for the IELTS exam right from our campus.

What is the IELTS Corner?

The IELTS Corner is a dedicated space on the 3.5 floors (third Mezzanine) of the North-South University Central Library Building. It’s designed to support NSU faculty, staff, and students who are preparing for the IELTS exam- an essential assessment for non-native English speakers aiming to study or work in English-speaking environments.
