🇨🇦 Duolingo English Test for Canada — from Indonesia
More than 400 Canadian universities and colleges accept the DET, including every English-speaking U15 research university.
What Canada asks for
Scores run on the 10–160 scale; there is no single national minimum — each university and program sets its own.
Admission is not the same as the visa
Canada ended the Student Direct Stream (SDS) on 8 November 2024, which used to require IELTS specifically — so older guides are out of date. Today everyone uses the regular study-permit process: if a Canadian university accepts your DET and issues a Letter of Acceptance (LOA), that's generally sufficient for the permit. Note: Permanent Residency later requires an approved immigration test (IELTS General or CELPIP) — the DET is not used for PR.
From Indonesia — the essentials
- Costs in
- Indonesian Rupiah (Rp)
- Credentials
- Kemendikbud — ijazah / degree recognition
- Funding to search
- LPDP, Australia Awards, Chevening, Fulbright
- Where students go
- Australia, United Kingdom, United States
- Apply from
- Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung
LPDP and most scholarships require Duolingo English Test/IELTS (commonly 6.5–7.0 IELTS equiv). At about $70 the DET is taken online from Indonesia — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS.
