What IELTS score do you need for CityU in Canada?

If your official transcripts come from a school or program whose primary language of instruction was English, no further proof is needed. Where the registrar cannot verify the language of instruction, you submit official English transcripts plus a formal statement from the issuing school that English was the main language, or you meet the requirement by testing or transfer credit. The page names no country restriction, so an English-medium degree from India, Pakistan or Nigeria can qualify if the school confirms it.

Rare exceptions can be granted by the director of English Language Programs or the school dean, who has the final say.

Results must come directly from the test provider; scores you upload yourself are not official. Placement scores are valid for two years from the date of the result.

Requirements vary by program and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your CityU in Canada program page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test. Admission scores are separate from immigration rules: see IELTS for a Canada study permit and IELTS for the Canada PGWP.
