Do I Need IELTS or TOEFL for Ireland Admission, or Is Duolingo Accepted?
13 May 2026 · Answered by Shairal Pathak · 1 min read
For Ireland, it is recommended to take IELTS or TOEFL, as these are the most widely accepted English language tests across universities. While Duolingo is accepted by some institutions, it is not universally recognized and may limit your options. To keep your options broader, it’s recommended that you plan for IELTS or TOEFL.
