Hi Vikas,
The first thing is to research and plan where to study. Use the internet to find out about universities in different countries over the world, their fees, living expenses in different countries, eligibility criteria of the programs and the universities etc. Do remember that the eligibility is different that's why you have to check the websites very carefully. Like for example if you want to study in USA you have to take the GRE for Masters degree, but its not required for most other countries. Then, your IELTS score is little low but some universities may accept it while some won't. So first do some research yourself and afte

5.5 is generally a low IELTS score. Even for Bachelor's degree, the colleges in New Zealand require a band of 6. But the catch is that colleges have several pathway programs for international students who do not meet the admission requirements slightly or more for the English language requirements. You must also remember that you cannot secure admission only on basis of IELTS score. The main criteria is how much is your academic percentile. You did not mention it and hence difficult to overall evaluate your profile. For now, I can advise you to check the requirements on the college websites and also email them and ask about these pathw

Hi Jainish,
There are many options, PG Diploma or M.Pharma can be done. In Pharmacy itself, you will find many disciplines like clinical pharmacy, industrial pharmacy, regulatory affairs etc. Since you are a B.Pharma student, you will have a better idea of the specializations offered, and accordingly you can decide what to study depending on your interest. Yes, many colleges will offer you admission on basis of IELTS and of course on basis of your Bachelor's degree percentage. No other exams are generally required.

Hi Jainesh,
It is less likely that you can secure an admission in USA or Canada only on basis of IELTS which is an English language proficiency test. GRE is an absolute must to pursue PG programs in USA. PG Diploma courses in Canada could be an option if you are interested. Also every university has its own admission criteria. In Australia, you can have a possibility to apply for both Masters and PG Diploma and the admission criteria will depend on the university and the course. If not any other test but an interview may have to be cleared. Just check with the universities.

Yes, scoring a good band in IELTS increases your chance of scholarship and almost every college provide assistanceship and administrationship which covers most of the tuition fee, all you need is to just ask to them through an email and they will reply back.

Hi Sivakumar, for Masters an overall score of 6.5 is required but it mainly depends on the university, so before applying you have to check the requirements on their websites.

Hi Dhruv Patel,
Chances are there although for Masters majority of the universities require higher CGPA. You can still research more on university specific admission requirements and apply if you see universities matching your profile. Remember that MS admissions are very competitive. A very good SOP and excellent LORs will be required.Your IELTS score is alright but check with the universities for your writing section score.

Hi Shubham,
An overall score of 6.5 with no module less than 6 is typically required for admissions into PG courses. You may further check college specific requirements on college websites.
