English Language Requirements

If English is not your native language, U.S. colleges will require you to show your proficiency by taking one of the following tests (typically a result from within the last two years at the time of applying):
  • TOEFL iBT (Test of English as a Foreign Language Internet-Based Test)
  • IELTS Academic (International English Language Testing System)
  • PTE Academic (Pearson's Test of English Academic)
  • C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency (Cambridge English: Advanced or Proficiency)
Colleges will have various policies on which tests are accepted (and what scores you need). Educom consultants will help you navigate all of it.
