Can you study in Cyprus without IELTS?

Most private universities teach in English and ask for proof of English, but IELTS is not the only route. European University Cyprus accepts a degree from an English-medium institution, TOEFL iBT 79 or PTE Academic 66, and applicants with no certificate can sit its own English Placement Test. Ask each university which proof it accepts before you apply; your English proof also goes into the entry permit file.

How to choose

How do you pick the right university in Cyprus?

Six checks Sunrise counsellors run with every Cyprus applicant before the application goes in.

1. Is it on the Ministry's list?

Choose a university or college registered with the Cyprus Ministry of Education, and check that your programme is accredited by the Cyprus Agency of Quality Assurance and Accreditation (CYQAA).

2. What language is it taught in?

Private universities teach mostly in English. At the public UCY most bachelor's are in Greek, and CUT teaches some programmes in Greek and some in another language, so check yours.

3. Can you show €7,000–7,500?

EUC asks for proof of at least €7,000 and UCLan Cyprus for a closing balance of €7,500 in the month before you submit. You also need €2,000 in cash when you land.

4. Are your documents apostilled?

Bangladesh joined the Apostille Convention in 2025 and Cyprus did not object, so your certificates, police record and medical reports need an apostille rather than embassy attestation.

5. Have you budgeted the deposits?

Most universities want money before the visa: UNIC the first semester's tuition, EUC €3,000, UCLan Cyprus €3,000 then €2,000, American College at least €4,000.

6. Do you know the work rules?

Students may work up to 20 hours a week in listed sectors, such as restaurants, cleaning, agriculture, wholesale trade and repairs, and food delivery, with a contract certified by the Department of Labour.

Does this page include North Cyprus?

No. It covers the Republic of Cyprus only. Universities in the north are not on the Cyprus Ministry of Education's list and follow different entry rules.
