What IELTS score does Saskatchewan Polytechnic require?

Tests are valid for two years and must be valid on the date your application reaches Sask Polytech. Its meeting English requirements page says applicants who miss an IELTS minimum must re-write all four segments, and segment scores cannot be combined; IELTS One Skill Retake is not mentioned by name.

Applicants who studied an English curriculum in a listed country are generally treated as meeting the requirement; for India only the CISCE and CBSE curricula are listed. You also qualify with 24 credits from a recognised English-speaking post-secondary institution. Practical Nursing treats no country as exempt.

Proof of registration in an approved English program, with a date by which you will meet the requirement, can bring a conditional offer. Approved routes include The Language Gallery Canada Level 6, the University of Regina's EAP 100 and 101, 70% in English School of Canada's UCTP (80% for post-graduation certificate programs) and ILAC's University Pathway at 3.2.

Saskatchewan Polytechnic's scores decide admission only. IRCC sets no minimum English score for a study permit; any language condition is written into your letter of acceptance (see IELTS for a Canada study permit). The Post-Graduation Work Permit is a separate test again. IRCC's PGWP eligibility page asks graduates of college, polytechnic and other non-university programs for CLB 5 in all four skills, and anyone who graduated with a bachelor's, master's or doctoral degree for CLB 7. On IELTS General Training, CLB 5 is Reading 4.0 and Writing, Listening and Speaking 5.0 (IRCC score table). The PGWP takes IELTS General Training, CELPIP-General or PTE Core, not IELTS Academic, and college programs also face a field-of-study rule if you applied for your study permit on or after 1 November 2024 (see IELTS for the PGWP).
