If you fall short
The first-year page does not describe conditional admission or an English pathway. For graduate applicants, an undergraduate degree from a US institution or an English-medium institution abroad may be considered proof of English.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your CCSU programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
