Hi everyone,

I'm a recent uni graduate from Ottawa. I'm wondering if everyone has to write the IELTS test in order to apply to express entry? or is there some sort of exemption for people who've graduated from Canadian Universities?

Thanks!
M

It's a few hundred bucks. Sign up now. Sometimes it may take weeks (or even months) for a spot to open up - they tend to be booked quickly.

Yeah, I guess that's another way to make money.....

Can the test be done online?
Highly doubt that! It'd be awesome though.
