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

The Machine Learning M.Sc. page asks more than the C1 list: TOEFL iBT 100, IELTS 7.0 overall or CAE with at least 180 points, or a school leaving certificate from the UK, Ireland, the USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand. Its deadline is 30 April for every applicant.

Population-Based Medicine asks B2: TOEFL 79 or IELTS Academic 6.5. It accepts an English-taught degree of two years or more only from Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the UK or the USA, and not from branch campuses or distance learning. The programme is taught entirely in English and needs no German.

The Master of Public Policy and Social Change asks TOEFL 79, IELTS 6.5 or a Cambridge B2 pass. Its page still lists "a recognized, entirely English-taught, at least two-year higher education degree" as an exemption without naming countries, so confirm with the programme if you rely on it.

Under the statutes and the Population-Based Medicine and Machine Learning pages, a degree taught in English in India or Pakistan does not replace the test, because the exemption names only six English-speaking countries. Plan on IELTS or TOEFL unless your programme confirms otherwise in writing.

None of the pages above states how old a test result may be.

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