IELTS
In terms of IELTS, these two levels are as follows (but we also accept a number of other English Language Qualifications):

The only course that does not use one of these two levels is Medicine BMBS, which requires an IELTS score of 7.5 overall and not less than 7.0 in each section. We would expect English language qualifications to have been achieved within the two years prior to starting.
