TOEFL Requirements: If your native language is not English, a minimum TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) score of 80 (Internet-based)*, 213 (computer exam) or 550 (paper exam) is required. For some academic programs the minimum score may be higher.

*A new Internet-based version of TOEFL is being phased in by ETS. It tests all four language skills- speaking, listening, reading and writing and will give departments a better understanding of an international student's English abilities. With the new Internet-based test, a new scoring system will be in effect as well. For those students taking the Internet based test, the minimum score will be 80.
