Most UK counselling psychology programs require an IELTS Academic overall score of 7.0, with no individual component below 6.5. Some universities may set higher requirements, such as an overall score of 7.5 with no component below 7.0.

Requirements vary by university and program, so check the specific criteria for your chosen institutions. If you need guidance on matching your IELTS preparation to these requirements, contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
