Final-year students of University Grants Committee-funded undergraduate degree programmes in the 2006-07 academic year can register for the Common English Proficiency Assessment Scheme until October 21.

To provide an additional, more convenient option to students, a new online registration service has been launched. Students can now register online by visiting this website, and find the dates and availability of each testing session there.

Testing sessions will be held from July through to next May for all final-year students of committee-funded final year undergraduates. Those wanting to register for the sessions from July to November should submit applications at least five weeks before the date of each testing session.

Those wanting to register for December to May should do so before October 21, and do it as early as possible as the seats are on a first-come, first-served basis, and some sessions may become full.

For more information visit the website, call the International English Language Testing System hotline (2620 0321) or contact the Registrar's Offices of the eight committee-funded institutions.
