Exemptions and tests not accepted
If you are a native speaker, or English was the language of instruction in your previous studies, you do not need to send a test score. That covers many Indian, Pakistani and Nigerian graduates applying for a master's.
British Council EnglishScore certificates, internal university tests and statements from language teachers are not accepted. You cannot combine scores from different test reports.

Country rules
Vilnius University also publishes country-specific document requirements, and English test results are an admission criterion for English-taught programmes. Check both before you apply.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Vilnius University programme page and in your offer, so check it there before you book a test.
Minimum vs competitive score
Where Vilnius University publishes an IELTS score, it is the minimum: the floor an application has to meet to be considered, not a score that guarantees an offer.
Competitive programmes, and courses with far more applicants than places, may expect more than the minimum, and some departments set their own overall or per-skill scores, often for writing or speaking. The course page has the final word, so check it before you book a test.
If you are close to the line, aim for a margin above it: one weak skill can miss the requirement even when the overall band clears it. Not sure where you stand? Take a free IELTS mock test and get a band for each skill.
