It depends. While some universities accept a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 for MBA admissions, many require higher scores.
- Most MBA programs prefer at least 6.5 overall, with some top schools requiring 7.0 or above.
- Some universities also set minimum scores for each IELTS section.
Check the specific requirements for each MBA program you are interested in. If your score is below their minimum, you may need to retake the test or look for programs with more flexible language requirements.
