英検で海外留学

海外進学を目指したときに最大のネックとなるのが英語力。大学やコミュニティカレッジが規定する英語力に達しなければ出願もできません。

ほとんどのアメリカの大学やカレッジでは、TOEFLスコアで英語力を判断していますが、現行のTOEFL iBTで基準のスコアを取得するのはかなり難しくなっています。このため、実際には、上級レベルの英語力があるのに、TOEFLでスコアが取れないという方も多くいます。

そんな方に朗報なのが、英検で海外留学する方法。

TOEFLと同様に英検の合格証を英語力の証明として認定してくれる学校が増えています。

通常、認められるのは英検準1級。2年制大学（コミュニティカレッジ）の中には、英検2級Aでも入学許可するところがあります。英検2級Aとは、英検2級の一次試験で75%以上で合格した場合です。通常の合格証書には記載されていないので、英検留学情報センターに連絡して確認する必要があります。

※以下は英検のウェブサイトに基づく情報（2010年10月現在）です。その後、英検の受付を中止したり、受け付ける級を変更している学校もあります。出願の際は、必ず、学校に確認してください。
