PTE Academic is listed among accepted evidence at undergraduate level. Postgraduate English requirements are set on individual programme pages, which were not fetched. The page gives no PTE Academic Online or UKVI statement and no per-skill PTE minimum (the comparison table says no additional criteria at 65). International Foundation Programmes are stated as IELTS 5 or equivalent with no PTE figure.
Pearson's own rules on validity are in our PTE score validity guide. Compare tests in PTE Academic vs Core vs UKVI.
