Which universities accept MOI (Medium of Instruction) certificate instead of IELTS in UK/Ireland for a Master's?
Many UK and Irish universities may accept a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate as proof of English proficiency, which can sometimes waive the IELTS requirement. An MOI is an official letter from your previous institution confirming your degree was taught fully in English.
- UK: Some universities accept MOI for master's admissions, but policies vary and can change. Even if a university accepts MOI, UK student visa rules may still require IELTS or similar proof.
- Ireland: A few Irish universities also accept MOI, but acceptance depends on the specific course and may change. Visa requirements may still apply.
Always check the latest program and visa requirements for your chosen course and intake.
