What PTE score do you need for Concordia University?

Undergraduate results must be less than two years old at the time you apply, and you upload a copy of your results when Concordia asks; you have three weeks from its email. Depending on your score, you may take a placement test after admission that decides whether you need ESL courses. Neither page mentions PTE Academic Online or PTE Core.

Graduate scores below 52 (below 50 in Gina Cody) mean no admission. For comparison, the graduate page asks IELTS 6.5 with 6.5 in each component in most faculties. The undergraduate page names programmes that ask more than its general minimum, including Child Studies, Creative Writing, Early Childhood and Elementary Education, Professional Writing and Teaching English as a Second Language.

In Gina Cody, a PTE of 52 to 56 means ENCS 6721 and 50 to 51 means ENCS 5721 and 6721. In Arts and Science, Fine Arts and the School of Graduate Studies, some programmes offer admission at 52 to 60 with courses set by a Concordia placement test; contact the department to confirm.

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