How Carroll handles TOEFL scores

Carroll's TOEFL school code is 1101, and it accepts TOEFL Essentials at 8. The page does not state section minimums, a MyBest or Home Edition rule, or a validity window. It will not accept letters from counsellors or schools as proof of English, apart from the exchange-partner letter.

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.

For comparison, the same page sets IELTS at 6 on all band scores.

If your TOEFL score is below Carroll's level

The page accepts a WESLI recommendation after 700-level courses or a passing grade at The Language Company level 9 in place of a test score. Requests to consider other proof can be emailed to the international office.

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