Do I need to maintain good percentages in university and tests to be eligible for courses abroad in UK for a Master's?
13 Jul 2026 · Answered by Honnappa Chandrannavar · 1 min read
Yes, maintaining good academic percentages and strong English proficiency test scores is essential for eligibility in UK master's programs.
Most UK universities require:
- Minimum 55 - 60% overall in your undergraduate degree (varies by university and program)
- IELTS score of 6.5 overall, with no band below 6.0 (some top universities may require 7.0+)
With your strong academic background, you are well positioned. Focus on preparing for the IELTS to boost your application.
