🇨🇳 IELTS Requirements in China — Universities
Compare IELTS Academic score requirements for 5 universities in China. Each listing includes minimum overall band scores for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
Universities in China use IELTS Academic to assess English proficiency for international applicants. Score requirements vary by institution and programme level — postgraduate programmes typically require higher overall bands and may set minimum component scores, especially for Writing. If your current score falls 0.5–1.0 bands below a university's requirement, check whether pre-sessional English courses are available as a conditional pathway. IELTS results are valid for two years, so plan your test date around both application deadlines and enrolment dates.
