Which IELTS test to practice
For admission to the University of Colorado Boulder, practice IELTS Academic. CU Boulder’s pages name only “IELTS”, not a module. Your exam must fall within two years of your start date or admission term. Medium of instruction letters do not meet the requirement. Admitted undergraduates without a score can enroll in the Pathway to CU Program instead.
The score to aim for
| Applies to | IELTS overall band |
|---|---|
| Undergraduate admission | 6.5 |
| Graduate, all programs except those the Graduate School lists | 6.5 |
| Graduate, programs such as Computer Science, Civil Engineering, Education and Robotics | 7.0 |
| Graduate, programs such as Applied Mathematics, Chemistry, Journalism and Law (JD & LLM) | 7.5 |
The Graduate School lists the band for each program. No band is set for each skill.
Before you book the real test
CU Boulder can change these scores. The graduate list is on the Graduate School’s English Proficiency Requirements page. Check the undergraduate rule before you book: English Proficiency Requirements.
