How Brooklyn College handles TOEFL scores
You need an English score if your bachelor's or master's degree is from a country where English is not the only official language. The score must come from a test taken in the past two years, and Brooklyn College only accepts TOEFL scores sent electronically; its ETS institution code is 2046.
TOEFL iBT score reports from January 2026 also carry a 1 to 6 band score; our guide to the new TOEFL score scale explains how the two scales appear on a report.
For comparison, the Computer Science page asks IELTS 6.5 and the Finance page asks IELTS 7.

If your TOEFL score is below Brooklyn College's level
None of the pages offers conditional admission or an English pathway for graduate applicants, so the route is to retest or choose a programme whose minimum you meet.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Brooklyn College programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
