It might be your ticket to working in a different country or give you access to better opportunities upon returning home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, a certain level of English to handle school work and daily life in your new country is a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But how good does your English actually need to be to get into a university abroad? And how good should it be for you to succeed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_English_Language_Requirements\"><\/span>Check English Language Requirements&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most schools set minimum score requirements for IELTS, TOEFL, and other standardized tests of English. To get a general idea, check out the English language requirements for universities in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieltsasia.org\/mm\/study-in-us\/required-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">US<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idp.com\/singapore\/blog\/minimum-ielts-score-requirements-for-uk-universities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UK<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll notice that most top-tier schools in English-speaking countries require an IELTS score of at least 7.0 or a TOEFL iBT score of at least 100. But the requirement varies widely from school to school, so make sure to check the score for each school you\u2019re interested in by looking at their admissions website for international students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re applying to graduate programs abroad, make sure to also check the score requirement for each program or department you\u2019re interested in, as many of these set their own requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, take some practice tests to figure out how high you can realistically score. Then make a list of schools you can apply to (e.g. search \u201ctop schools that accept TOEFL iBT score of 79\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_Forget_About_Schools_Outside_the_US_and_UK\"><\/span>Don\u2019t Forget About Schools Outside the US and UK!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you don\u2019t limit yourself to schools in the US and UK.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can consider other countries in the English-speaking world, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieltsasia.org\/mm\/study-in-canada\/required-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canada<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieltsasia.org\/mm\/study-in-australia\/required-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Australia<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idp.com\/malaysia\/blog\/minimum-ielts-scores-for-new-zealand-universities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">New Zealand<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieltsasia.org\/sg\/study-in-singapore\/required-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Singapore<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieltsasia.org\/hk\/en\/study-in-hongkong\/required-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hong Kong<\/a>. These parts of the world still offer excellent higher education programs, but demand slightly lower levels of English proficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And don\u2019t forget about non-English-speaking countries. For example, Germany has become a popular study abroad option in recent years. And countries like the Netherlands, Austria, France, Spain, Japan, and Thailand all host tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of international students each year, so you might want to consider them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Programs in these countries tend to have lower minimum score requirements. Some, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/t-cens.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/guidance_information\/?id=language_requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">University of Tokyo Graduate School of Engineering<\/a>, don\u2019t have minimum score requirements at all, but still highly encourage applicants to learn English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this is not true of all programs. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hec.edu\/en\/mba-programs\/mba\/admissions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HEC Paris<\/a> requires a TOEFL iBT score of 100 and an IELTS of 7.0. So make sure you check carefully!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_Have_Enough_Time_to_Prepare\"><\/span>Don\u2019t Have Enough Time to Prepare?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re pressed for time, remember that you have options:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/gradschool.princeton.edu\/faqpage\/english-language-test-scores\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Some schools<\/a> let applicants submit TOEFL and IELTS scores after the application deadline.<\/li><li>Some programs don\u2019t require you to submit English test scores at all! The <a href=\"https:\/\/som.yale.edu\/programs\/mba\/admissions\/application-information\/faq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yale School of Management<\/a> is an example.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Some programs give \u201cconditional offers\u201d or \u201cconditional admission,\u201d which means that they admit you without a score.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The third point is true of many programs in the UK and Europe, including top schools. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ox.ac.uk\/admissions\/undergraduate\/applying-to-oxford\/for-international-students\/english-language-requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oxford<\/a> doesn\u2019t require admitted students to submit a test score until July 31st.<\/li><li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lse.ac.uk\/study-at-lse\/Graduate\/Prospective-students\/Entry-requirements\/English-language-requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">London School of Economics<\/a> considers applications without test results, though it strongly recommends that applicants submit test results along with the application.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you don\u2019t get the required score, you can still attend the university, but you must take language courses (called \u201cpre-sessional courses\u201d in the UK) and pass some language tests before enrolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, some schools don\u2019t have strict score requirements. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/gradschool.duke.edu\/admissions\/apply\/english-language-proficiency-test-scores\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Duke Graduate School<\/a> doesn\u2019t have requirements, but \u201cgenerally seeks scores no less than\u201d 90 (for the TOEFL iBT) and 7.0 (for the IELTS).<\/li><li>If you don\u2019t have an ideal score, you can still be admitted to Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, but you will most likely have to take an <a href=\"https:\/\/gsas.harvard.edu\/degree-requirements\/english-language-proficiency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oral communication course<\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you want to go abroad and don\u2019t have enough time to improve your English significantly before leaving your country, look into these options.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"But_Its_Best_To_Arrive_Prepared\"><\/span>But It\u2019s Best To Arrive Prepared.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it\u2019s best to already have good English skills before arriving on campus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For starters, most schools will require you to apply in English. This means you\u2019ll need to prepare application essays and r\u00e9sum\u00e9s in English and sometimes even have interviews in English.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the school, you may also have to take difficult admissions exams in English, such as the GRE or GMAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, you\u2019ll need English skills after getting to campus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You\u2019ll need English conversation skills to not only make friends with other students but also work together with them in group projects.&nbsp;<\/li><li>In lectures, you\u2019ll need adequate listening skills to keep up with the professor.<\/li><li>In seminars, you\u2019ll need to contribute to discussions with other students.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And ultimately, you\u2019ll need more than English to succeed during your studies and beyond. You\u2019ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Communication skills: When looking for jobs, will you be able to explain your degree and experiences to your future employers in a way that\u2019s impressive but not confusing?<\/li><li>Critical thinking skills: Are you able to tell if information is reliable or not? Are you able to delve deeper into a complicated problem and identify the real issue?<\/li><li>Logical thinking skills: Let\u2019s say you don\u2019t know how to answer a question in an interview. What assumptions can you make to arrive at an answer?<\/li><li>Cross-cultural communication skills: Wherever you go, you\u2019re bound to take classes with students from not only the host country, but also all over the world.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And you\u2019ll need to be able to do all this in English!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it\u2019s better to arrive at a university with decent English skills.
