Most Singapore universities require a minimum IELTS overall band score of 6.5 for master's admissions. Some competitive programs may ask for higher scores or set minimum requirements for each section (Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking), often no less than 6.0 per section.

These requirements are current but subject to change. With your strong academic record and work experience, you are well positioned, but aiming for a higher IELTS score can further strengthen your application.

If you need detailed guidance for your target program, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
