What IELTS score do you need for BOKU University (University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences), Vienna?

A completed bachelor's of at least three years, or a master's of at least two years, taught entirely in English counts as proof, but only if the institution is in the EU or EEA, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, Switzerland, the UK or the US. The page names no institution in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal or Nigeria, so applicants from there should plan to sit a test. You need official confirmation with the institution's stamp and signature that the whole course was in English.

English-language courses, exchange semesters and study visits do not count. The page does not list PTE Academic, and it sets no separate rules for other cases, so ask BOKU Study Services about anything beyond these routes.

The page applies to degree programmes that require English proof. Its 7.0 figure is higher than many programme pages show, so confirm the figure for your programme with BOKU Study Services, particularly if an older programme page quotes a lower score. Applications before 1 January 2026 were under different rules that the page does not describe.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your BOKU programme page and in your offer, so check it there before you book a test.
