Scores run on the 10–160 scale; requirements vary by university and program, generally 105–125.

Admission is not the same as the visa

Ireland is one of the most DET-friendly destinations: the test is officially recognised by Irish student visa authorities, so it works for both admission AND the student visa — simpler than the UK.

Applying from Monaco

At about $70 the DET is taken online from Monaco — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS. Monaco is French-speaking; France is the leading destination, and English-taught programmes need Duolingo English Test/IELTS.

Credentials: Direction de l'Éducation Nationale, de la Jeunesse et des Sports
Funding to search: Monaco Government study grants (bourses), Erasmus+, French university scholarships
