Isn't it enough that the exam isn't even offered in Iran? Now you've banned Iranian residents from taking it too? All of us traveled to another country to take it. Ridiculous.

I have spent months preparing for the PTE Academic exam and planning my future around studying and working internationally. This sudden restriction is heartbreaking for students and professionals who have invested time, effort, and money in preparing for the test. We only ask for the opportunity to prove our English ability. Please reconsider this decision and restore PTE Academic access for Iranian residents.

Please hear the voice of Iranian test takers.
For many of us, PTE is not just an exam—it is a pathway to education, career opportunities, and a better future. Being unable to take the test because of our nationality puts years of hard work and countless dreams at risk.
We respectfully ask Pearson to reconsider this decision and ensure equal and fair access to PTE for Iranian candidates. Please don’t let nationality stand between students and their dreams. 🤍

This matters to me because PTE is essential to my education and immigration plans, and Iranian candidates deserve equal access to the exam.

I signed this petition because I believe it is deeply unfair that Iranian people, cultured, educated, and highly capable individuals, are being prevented from taking Pearson examinations that are essential for their education, professional careers, migration, and broader academic and professional development.

It's completely unfair and a total discrimination against Iranian youths who put their hope for being useful in a different country than their own home. US and AU gov people have told multiple times that they support the people of Iran, and this is how you support Iranian people??? Are you liars?! I don't think so, fix this embarrassing discrimination.
UNFAIR, UNFAIR, UNFAIR.

This is unfair. We have invested significant time and money preparing for the PTE exam. Political conflicts with the Islamic Republic should not punish ordinary Iranian people who have no connection to the government and even oppose its policies. We should not have to pay the price for decisions we did not make.

As an international teacher trainer with more than +9years of experience and Cambridge certified teacher trainer.
PTE is the most recommended test from me to my student for their immigration program. For this path i have put my life on the line and trying to make better environment for english and students.
I highly request with all due respect to consider this as an opportunity for iranians and for the educators to expand their knowledge and to catch their dreams by allowing us to be allowed…

It is not fair at all to limit Iranian test takers just only because of political reasons.
There are lots of hopes and efforts behind all of those people to make their future.

Dear Pearson PTE Team,
I am an Iranian candidate currently residing in Iran and preparing for the PTE exam for my Australian work visa.
I have spent significant time and money preparing for the exam, and this sudden restriction has seriously affected my plans.
I respectfully ask Pearson to reconsider this decision or provide a reasonable transitional period or an alternative option for Iranian candidates.
I would greatly appreciate your understanding and support.
Kind regards,
Mehdi
