[Oacrao-l] help on IELTS

[Dawn Cain]

For undergrads, NSU uses IELTS score of 6 for those direct from their home
country and 5 for those with 12 weeks of study at an approved English
language school.

For grads, IELTS from home country is 6.5 and 5.5 with 12 weeks of study.

We have been using these scores since at least 2007 and I have not heard of
any changes via email.
