Yes, for most English-taught master's programs in the Netherlands, your daughter will need to take an English proficiency test such as IELTS or TOEFL. The GRE is generally not required.
Typical requirements:
- IELTS Academic: Overall 6.5, with no band below 6.0
- TOEFL iBT: Overall 90, with at least 21 in each section
GRE scores are usually not needed, but a few specialized programs may request them. Requirements may vary by university and are subject to change.
