What TOEFL score do you need for Arcadia University?

Both levels share the same total and section minimums, and scores go to TOEFL school code 2039. Transfer applicants from colleges outside the US submit SAT or ACT scores or proof of English proficiency as for first-year applicants. The page does not list a validity period or a MyBest policy.

For comparison, the page sets IELTS at 6.0 for first-year applicants and 6.5 for graduate applicants, with no section below 5.5 at either level.

TOEFL iBT score reports issued since January 2026 also carry a 1 to 6 band score alongside the 0 to 120 total; see our guide to the new TOEFL score scale. Where a page above gives only a 0 to 120 figure, that is the figure this guide reports.

The page does not describe conditional admission or an English pathway. First-year applicants can submit SAT or ACT scores instead of English test scores, and F-1 high school students in the US may apply without SAT or ACT scores.

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