For instance:

Students from India must take an English test as well as two other certificates attesting to their academic education.

Nigerian students do not need to take an English test, but they do need to have Senior School Certificates in six courses (obligatory English, Mathematics, and Science), as well as one other certificate.

A National Senior Certificate is all that is required of South African pupils.

Students from the United States must have a high school diploma plus one year of university or college studies in academic disciplines, or three Advanced Placement Tests with a grade of at least 3.
