It is to go to school for the purpose of acquiring the necessary English proficiency after going on to school. Some Pathway programs are offered at language schools and some are attached to the college where you study abroad. By choosing the Pathway program, you will be exempted from English tests such as IELTS and TOEFL, making it easier for you to go on to higher education. increase.
