What IELTS score do you need for FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg?

Figures below are from the master's information sheet and the MIBS admission page.

Waivers are set per programme. The Chemistry M.Sc. page accepts a confirmation from your university that your bachelor's was fully taught in English instead of the B2 certificate, and MIBS accepts an English-taught bachelor's with a medium-of-instruction certificate. Neither page limits this to particular countries.

FAU's orientation guide notes that TOEFL and IELTS scores are valid for two years and that Cambridge certificates do not expire. The programme rows above do not add their own age limit.

The Chemistry page also asks applicants whose nationality is not a Lisbon Convention signatory to submit a GRE, the Indian GATE, the Pakistani GAT or a comparable entrance test for international master's programmes. Check whether your programme has this rule.

Your German student visa is handled by the German embassy or consulate where you apply, not by FAU. This guide covers FAU's admission rule only. Our IELTS for Germany guide covers the visa side and test fees.

English requirements in Germany are written into each programme's admission or examination regulations and can change between intakes. The score that binds you is the one on your FAU programme page and in your admission letter, so check it there before you book a test.
