🇮🇪 Duolingo English Test for Ireland — from Azerbaijan

Ireland has near-universal acceptance — 15 of its 18 universities recognise the DET, and it is officially accepted by Irish student visa authorities.

What Ireland asks for

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.

From Azerbaijan — the essentials

Costs in: Azerbaijani Manat (₼)
Credentials: Ministry of Science and Education — diploma recognition
Funding to search: State Program (HTP intergovernmental), Erasmus+, Chevening
Where students go: Turkey, United Kingdom, Germany, Russia
Apply from: Baku, Ganja, Sumqayit

English-taught admission needs Duolingo English Test/IELTS; state intergovernmental programmes (HTP) fund study abroad under bilateral agreements. At about $70 the DET is taken online from Azerbaijan — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS.
