Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)

The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is required for international students (from countries in which English is not the official language) for admission to the university. It is not used for granting credit nor for waiver of the communications literacy requirement. International undergraduate students are required to complete the Intensive English program unless they receive a score of at least 500 paper/pencil or at least 61 iBT (Internet-based test) on the TOEFL examination, a Michigan score of 80 or higher, or a 5.0 or higher on the IELTS examination. Note: The minimum TOEFL and IELTS scores acceptable for undergraduate students entering USU during the 2010-2011 academic year will be raised to 525 paper/pencil, iBT 71, and IELTS 6.0 (with a minimum of 5.0 on each sub-scale).
