Additionally, evidence of English language proficiency (IELTS or TOEFL) is required if the bachelor's program was not taught in English. To be accepted to the programme, at least one of the following requirements must be fulfilled:
completion of your first degree programme in English (this means that ALL lectures must have been held in English)
TOEFL: minimum score paper-based 550, computer-based 215, internet-based 79; the TOEFL score must not be older than two years
IELTS (Academic): minimum score 6.0 (Overall Band Score)
We consider applicants whose GPA is greater than 75%. You are thus requested to send us your application documents when you have completed your first-degree programme or when you are about to complete it.
