What is the required IELTS score for the program, and is a score of 7 out of 9 sufficient in Germany for a Master's?
23 Jun 2026 · Answered by Disha Roy Choudhury · 1 min read
Yes, an IELTS score of 7.0 out of 9 is generally sufficient for most English-taught Master's programs in Germany.
Most universities require IELTS Academic 6.5 - 7.0. Some competitive programs, especially in Engineering or Business, may expect higher scores.
Requirements can vary by university and program, so always confirm the specific criteria for your chosen course. If you need help checking a particular program, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
