How AUArts handles TOEFL scores

AUArts' TOEFL institution code is 0595. The page gives no validity period, Home Edition or MyBest policy. You meet the English requirement through one of three routes: a test exemption based on English-medium schooling, an English language pathway programme, or an English test such as TOEFL.

For comparison, the same page sets IELTS at 6.5 overall.

If your TOEFL score is below AUArts' level

AUArts accepts two English pathway programmes in place of a test: the Pre-Sessional English Course at Oxford International Digital Institute (online) and General English Level 5 at Anne's Language House (in person).

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your AUArts programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
