IELTS is considered a reliable indicator of the ability of the candidate to communicate in English and tests candidates for their English listening, reading, writing and speaking skills.
Over 6,000 Educational Institutions in more than 76 Countries worldwide recognize IELTS. These include 2,000 US Universities (inclusive of all the Ivy League Colleges), Canadian Universities, European and UK Universities, Australian Universities, and the universities in New Zealand. Besides, the UK Border Agency, the Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship, Citizenship and Immigration Canada, and New Zealand Immigration Service also ask for IELTS results for those who are interested in immigration in their respective countries.
