If you carried out your nurse training in a country where English is not the first language, you will be required to take an English language exam. We recommend the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). If you choose to take IELTS you must sit the academic module, not the general module. This examination is held in several locations around the UK and Ireland. For more information on specific locations and current costs, please visit http://www.ielts.org

To obtain a VisaScreen certificate the following IELTS scores are required:

Overall – 6.5 or above
Speaking – 7.0 or above
