IELTS Requirement for Malaysia Universities: Minimum Score

Computed from this project's own sample of eight verified Malaysian universities: Universiti Malaya, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS and Asia Pacific University (APU) each state IELTS 5.0 as their general undergraduate floor. Multimedia University's floor varies by programme from 4.5 to 6.0 depending on faculty. International Islamic University Malaysia states 6.0 for English-medium programmes generally and 7.0 for law and English-literature programmes specifically. University of Nottingham Malaysia's engineering entry point is 5.5. Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia confirms English tests are accepted but its general undergraduate page states the minimum is set faculty by faculty rather than published as one institution-wide number.
