Does my IELTS reading score of 6 and writing score of 6 meet the requirements in Germany for a Master's?
25 Jun 2026 · Answered by Deepak Kumar · 1 min read
Yes, your IELTS reading and writing scores of 6 each generally meet the minimum requirements for many English-taught master's programs in Germany.
Most universities require an overall IELTS score of 6.5, with no individual band below 5.5 or 6.0. Some programs may set higher minimums, such as no band below 6.0.
Since your overall IELTS score is 6.5 and no section is below 6, you should be eligible for most programs. Requirements can vary by university and course, so check specific program criteria with your LeapScholar counsellor if needed.
