It depends on the university and country. For Master's programs in Economics in Italy and Germany, GRE requirements vary:

- Italy: Most universities do not require the GRE, but some, like the University of Siena, recommend a high GRE quantitative score. Others may not mention GRE at all.
- Germany: Some universities, such as LMU Munich and University of Muenster, require the GRE with specific minimum scores, especially for non-EU applicants. Others may not require it.

Admission test requirements are subject to change. Review the specific university’s requirements for your target program before planning your test dates.

If you need help identifying which universities require the GRE or other tests, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
