What IELTS score do you need for the University of Bonn?

Bonn's Computer Science page says a proof of the language of instruction in your bachelor's does not suffice. Even if your entire bachelor's in, for example, Bangladesh, India or Pakistan was in English, you must submit a TOEFL, IELTS, CAE or another listed certificate.

It also accepts Cambridge Advanced or higher, telc C1 and TOLIMO 620. IELTS, TOEFL, PTE and TOLIMO scores must be valid until the start of the upcoming semester.

Economics lets graduates of a programme taught entirely in English ask their university to certify that English was the only medium of instruction. It also accepts Cambridge English First (FCE). Mathematics accepts proof that English was the language of instruction in your bachelor's, and native English speakers need no proof. Neither page states how old a test may be.

Your German student visa is handled by the German embassy or consulate where you apply, not by the University of Bonn. This guide covers the University of Bonn'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 University of Bonn programme page and in your admission letter, so check it there before you book a test.
