IELTS Test Dates, Times & Fees in Ottawa (Kanata and Goulbourn)

IELTS Dates

Great news. There are now 4 test centers that have IELTS in Ottawa. There are also a number of options in Kingston (2 centers) and Montreal.  Registration books up very quickly, so plan ahead. Remember that when you book tests only 3 weeks apart from each other, you have a small chance of improving drastically. Your score could even go down. 

To register you need to visit the official IELTS page and follow the instructions.

IELTS Fee

The fee is $309/test at Algonquin College and Conestoga (U of Ottawa), $310 at Canada College (Carleton University), except at St Paul's University where it appears to be a bit more expensive to take the test ($290 + 13% HST tax). See our page on the IELTS test itself because there are some strict refund fees and costs for appeals as well.
