Is IELTS good for me to plan for in Ireland/France for a Master's/Postgraduate?
Yes, planning for the IELTS exam is recommended for your master's applications to Ireland and France. Most universities in both countries require proof of English proficiency, and IELTS is widely accepted.
- Ireland: Universities typically require an overall IELTS Academic score of 6.5 (no band below 6.0) for postgraduate programs, though some may accept 6.0. The student visa process relies on meeting your university's language requirements.
- France: English-taught master's programs usually require an IELTS score of 6.5. Top institutions may ask for 6.5 - 7.0. The student visa does not set a specific IELTS score but follows university requirements.
IELTS scores are valid for two years. Some universities may accept a Medium of Instruction certificate, but this depends on the institution.
