University English requirements

What Duolingo score do you need for Binghamton University?

Binghamton University's Graduate School requires a minimum Duolingo English Test score of 105. For first-year undergraduates, Binghamton accepts Duolingo but publishes a middle 50% range of 110 to 120 rather than a fixed minimum, so aim for that range. All scores must reach admissions electronically from the test provider.

Sending and IELTS comparison

Graduate English test scores must be delivered to the Office of Graduate Admissions electronically from the official examiner, not sent directly by you. Undergraduates select "Binghamton University" from the Duolingo drop-down, and only official scores sent directly by the testing agency count.

IELTS comparison: the graduate page asks for IELTS 6.5 with no band below 5.0, and the undergraduate page lists an IELTS middle 50% range of 6.5-7.0.

If your score is lower

The graduate page gives waivers, for example for two years of full-time study at an English-medium institution in a country on its waiver list. Undergraduates who studied in English may request a waiver by writing to international@binghamton.edu. Neither page lists a conditional Duolingo range.

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