How to send IELTS score

[mad_scientist]

Hi, I want to apply to a number of canadian universities for masters next month. I have taken my IELTS and got a band score 7.5. But I don't know how to send my IELTS score to canadian universities. 3 options have come to my mind:

1. Send the original test report that I recieved from british council along with other things i.e. Application form, transcripts, reference letters etc.

2. Send a notarized copy of my original test report along with other things i.e. Application form, transcripts, reference letters etc.

3. Tell british council to send official report to canadian universities and send other documents (i.e. Application form, transcripts, reference letters etc.) seperately.

Please tell me the procedure and let me know how did you people send your IELTS score. Thanks in advance.

Go with Option #2

All students proceed with choice 2 indeed.

Cheers

Hi dear
Until the university specifically ask for official score you can ignore it because there is cost associated with sending your score directly to univ through British council after your exam depending on how many universities u choose.
In most of the cases you can just send a photocopy of your score because they can easily verify it through website of partners institute.
Hope it helps
God Bless
