How MIU handles Duolingo scores

International applicants must submit official English proficiency test scores from within the past two years. Duolingo is listed with IELTS Academic, PTE and TOEFL iBT. The page gives no subscore rule or sending instructions.

For comparison, the same admissions page sets IELTS Academic at 6.0 for bachelor's and 6.5 for master's applicants.

If your Duolingo score is below MIU's level

The page does not describe conditional admission or an English pathway. It says applicants below the GPA guideline may still be considered on other qualifications, but makes no such statement about English scores.

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