What is the IELTS score requirement for Dubai study visa for a Postgraduate?
Dubai’s student visa itself does not require a specific IELTS score. However, most universities in Dubai ask for proof of English proficiency as part of their admission process.
- Undergraduate programs: Minimum IELTS Academic score of 5.0 is typical.
- Postgraduate programs: Minimum IELTS Academic score of 6.0 is common.
- Some universities may accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate if your previous education was in English, waiving the IELTS requirement.
- Alternative tests like TOEFL, PTE Academic, and Cambridge English are often accepted.
Requirements vary by university and program. For guidance on the exact score needed for your chosen course, please contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
