Petition to Restore PTE Academic Access for Iranian Resident

Amirhossein Pourimanshad

It is incredibly frustrating to be prevented from taking the PTE simply because our primary residence is in Iran. Many of us are willing to travel abroad, pay the full costs, and follow all required procedures, yet we are still denied the opportunity to take an exam that is essential for our academic and professional futures. We are not asking for special treatment—only a fair and legally permissible way to prove our English ability and pursue our goals.

Soleiman Rahimi

Numerous students, immigration applicants are preparing themselves for this exam. Why political consequences should influences these individuals?

Iman Zare

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.

I am Iranian an leaving outside my country but I believe its not fair to remove education right from young people of my country

Amin Amiri

I’ve spent a lot of time preparing for this exam and working hard to get the score I need, so I find this incredibly unfair. What justification is there for this? What have ordinary people done to deserve this?

Bahram Jamshidjam

I am Iranian; why shouldn't we be able to take a language test? We travel abroad at great expense, hoping to pass the language test.

Kamal Pakdaman

Iranians deserve the minimum rights for a better life

Mary Shah

Education restriction is the violation of human rights Preventing a whole nation from Education is against human rights Iranian have the right to access quality education ....

Ms. Mahnaz

Because this rule only puts pressure on ordinary people who want to go abroad because of the difficult circumstances in their country, and it is not a good reason to impose sanctions.

Hassan Aslani

We ourselves are suffering enough in Iran. Stop rubbing salt in our wounds by making immigration conditions more difficult for Iranians.

Students should not be punished for political decisions beyond their control. It is not fair.

Iranian people have been in sanctions for years please don't deprive them from their rights more

Yaser Kalabi

I passed the exam last year in August with grade of +79, but it's unfair and unfriendly what you the examiners have been doing with Iranian educated people spending their precious time and worthless money to take the exam. Now Because of wrong policies they are unable to take the exam nor in Iran neither in other countries.

Farzad Amiri

Please free the exam for Iranians

Neg Mahjoub

As a PTE teacher, I believe this decision to be unfair for Iranian people. Political issues should affect governments not people. I hope to see a change soon.

ALI ATTARAN

Absolute discrimination against Iranians

Mehran Amiri

I support this petition because Iranian test takers deserve equal access to the PTE Academic exam. Restricting access based on nationality or location unfairly affects students, skilled professionals, and immigration applicants who depend on internationally recognized English language tests. We ask Pearson to provide a fair and accessible solution for Iranian candidates and ensure equal opportunities for everyone.
