Should I submit both results for canada study visa ( Ielts and Duolingo )

[Connor Walsh]

I got overall 6.5 band Ielts AC just in reading had 5.5. To secure a seat for a PG program in colleges, agents recommended me take doulingo English Test.

• I am confused would doubling the result with Ielts affect the chances of a visa
• Would my file be applied under SDS if I submitted both results ( Ielts and Duolingo )

Please Help me to take further step.

Sorry about not answering your origional questions. I don't think having results from more than 1 would increase you chances of getting a Study Permit. In fact Duolingo isn't even listed as being a qualifying test for a Study Permit under SDS. See this page, it lists the requirements to apply for the SDS stream, if you meet them all then you can use SDS:

As for it helping to secure a seat I have my doubts about that too, I don't think you get any extra consideration by having 2 tests. Each course outline should specify the requirements and what the acceptable tests are. A course a relative of mine applied for lists 9 different tests.

Thank you for your response.
You are right but I am taking Duolingo just to secure a seat in college and for the rest process, I will use IELTS as IRCC specified for the SDS category. Actually college requirements are different compared to IRCC. What do you think about it?

Is duolingo still accepted at DLIs? I know they were, during the height of the pandemic when students can't book an IELTS exam.

How is 5.5 CLB high enough for SDS?

As per IRCC's new update overall 6 band are required for SDS no matter what score have another modules. But the problem is with colleges, they are asking for overall 6 not less than 5.5 for UG and PG 6.5 not less than 6. So I am lacking with college requirement.

Unfortunately it doesn't matter what I think, IRCC and the schools set their own requirements and that's what you have to go by.
