Yes, the Duolingo English Test (DET) is widely accepted by many universities in Ireland for master's admissions, and it is also recognized by Irish visa authorities as proof of English proficiency.
Most universities require a minimum DET score of 110 - 120, but specific requirements can vary by institution and program. Policies and accepted scores are subject to change.
Since you are planning for the September 2027 intake, preparing for the Duolingo English Test is a suitable option for Ireland.
