Scope of IELTS for German Universities

Yes, an Indian student must demonstrate their proof of proficiency in the English language while applying at universities in Germany as it is one of the major admission requirements. You can do this with the help of major English exam scores such as IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, etc. Note that IELTS  is accepted by almost all the German universities and the minimum score requirements varies. On an average, the minimum IELTS score required to study in Germany is in the range 7.0 - 7.5.

German universities require an IELTS overall band score of 6.0 or 6.5 out of 9.0 as an English language qualification for a master's course. It is important to note that some universities have been known to require a 6.0 band in all four individual modules of the IELTS exam.

Yes, a 7.5 IELTS score is well for Germany and is considered a good score for migrating to countries for study or work purposes. Universities in Germany accept the application of students having IELTS scores above 7.5.

IELTS is a preferred test while some universities also accept TOEFL scores. On the off-chance, that you are applying for a course taught in German Language, then you need not write the IELTS. Instead, you would have to write a German Language Test. Both Test DAF and DSH are widely accepted German Language Tests.

Yes, it is possible to study in Germany without IELTS as several universities in Germany accept IELTS band scores between 4.5-6.5. On average, most institutions in the country accept anything between 6-6.5 IELTS. Some institutions accept IELTS 5.5 as well.

BSBI does not hold degree-awarding powers in Germany and its programmes are validated by private Italian distance learning institution UniNettuno International Telematic University. BSBI has also partnered with Concordia University Chicago to deliver programmes at its Berlin campus.

The IELTS syllabus is divided into four major sections, IELTS Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. Each IELTS section has its own structure. For example, the IELTS listening section consists of four recordings, which include two conversations and two monologues. The Reading section of the IELTS exam has three passages for both Academic and General. The Writing section of IELTS consists of two tasks, one needs to describe visual information (graphs, charts) in at least 150 words in task 1, and then task 2 requires writing an essay in at least 250 words for both Academic and General Training. The Speaking section is divided into three parts, introduction, task card and then discussion.
