Which IELTS test to practice
For graduate admission to Western University, practice IELTS Academic. The School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (SGPS) sets the minimum, and programs may require more. Listening and Speaking are the same in Academic and General Training; only Reading and Writing change. Academic Reading uses journal and textbook passages, and Academic Writing Task 1 describes a chart or diagram.
The score to aim for
| Applies to | IELTS overall band | IELTS band in each skill |
|---|---|---|
| Graduate admission, SGPS minimum | 6.5 | No minimum set |
| MMASc programs | 7.0 | 6.5 |
| Nursing MScN | 7.0 | 7.0 on each subcomponent |
The graduate minimum is read out of 9, and a 6.5 overall counts however your four skills fall.
Before you book the real test
Applicants who already hold conditional admission can be recommended to the Western English Language Centre, which determines the length of the program; English Boost runs nine weeks. SGPS can change these scores, so check before you book: International Applicants.
