What IELTS score do you need for the University of Central Missouri?

UCM accepts TOEFL iBT 79, IELTS Academic 6.0, Duolingo 120, Oxford ELLT 7 and its own UCM English Test (email iep@ucmo.edu to take it). It notes that it accepts the home-based versions of TOEFL and IELTS. If you do not meet the minimum, your application is updated to show an English requirement and you start with the English Language Institute when you arrive. See graduate international admission.

For summer starts, UCM admits to master's programs in Computer Science, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Computer Information Systems, Big Data, Counseling and the MBA.

You receive a waiver if you are from a listed country, including Australia, Cameroon, Canada, Ghana, Kenya, New Zealand, Nigeria, the Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, Uganda and the UK. India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh are not on it. Other waivers are two years at a US high school, 24 credit hours at a regionally accredited US university, graduation from a WASC-accredited secondary school, or qualifying IB English scores. Waiver requests go to intladmit@ucmo.edu.

Undergraduate minimums are TOEFL iBT 61, IELTS Academic 5.5, Duolingo 95, Cambridge C1/B2 162 or Oxford ELLT 6, with the same home-based acceptance and the same waiver list. See undergraduate international admission.

The US F-1 student visa sets no English test score of its own. What counts is the requirement UCM sets for admission, which leads to your Form I-20. For the wider picture of studying in the US with each test, see IELTS for the USA and PTE for the USA.

Requirements change between admission cycles. Check the UCM graduate international admission page again before you book a test, and check your own program page, which can set a higher bar.
