If your TOEFL score is below Bradley's level

The page offers no conditional admission. You can be waived from the test with a degree from an English-medium institution in an eligible country, or at least one year of full-time degree-level study at a US institution within the last four years, both with transcripts for verification.

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