Which IELTS test to practice
For admission to UC Santa Barbara, practice IELTS Academic. The Graduate Division accepts IELTS Academic and IELTS Indicator; the undergraduate page names only “IELTS”. For undergraduate admission, UC does not accept IELTS One Skill Retake, and only the highest overall score from a single sitting counts. Transfer applicants can instead pass the two UC-transferable English composition courses with a “C” or better.
The score to aim for
| Applies to | IELTS overall band |
|---|---|
| Undergraduate admission, minimum | 6.5 |
| Graduate Division, IELTS Academic or IELTS Indicator, minimum | 7.0 |
Graduate departments may require a higher score, and no band is set for each skill. Undergraduate scores are valid for two years from the exam date; graduate scores must fall within two years of the day you submit your application.
