The IELTS score you need for Australia

Study (university + student visa)
A commonly cited requirement is typically 6.0–6.5 overall for undergraduate and 6.5–7.0 for postgraduate (student-visa minimum often 5.5–6.0), set by Australian universities / Department of Home Affairs.
PR / skilled migration
Skilled visas (subclasses 189/190/491) score English from IELTS: Competent (6.0 in each) meets eligibility but earns 0 points; Proficient (7.0 in each) earns 10 points; Superior (8.0 in each) earns 20 points, per the Department of Home Affairs.

Around 100% of Australian universities accept IELTS, and it is accepted for Australian skilled-migration points. Globally, IELTS is accepted by more than 12,500 organisations across over 140 countries. Confirm the exact band your programme needs on its official admissions page.

IELTS requirements change and vary by route, university, employer and visa class — always confirm the current figure with the official body before you rely on it. This page is honest guidance, not immigration advice.
