Test rules and how to send your score
The catalog does not mention PTE Academic Online, PTE Core, a validity period or a Pearson code. Send your score through your Pearson account and check it appears on your application.
In the same table, unconditional admission needs IELTS 6.5 with no section below 6.0, and the Bridge program takes IELTS 6.0 or 6.5 with a section below 6.0. PTE 58 is the PTE line for unconditional entry.

If you fall short
Students who have not reached proficiency may be provisionally admitted if they enrol in Creighton's Intensive English Language Institute (IELI). Completing IELI or another accredited English program can make you eligible for the Bridge program, and in some cases for unconditional admission. For graduate study, the page lists general and Nursing scores for TOEFL, IELTS and Duolingo only.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Creighton programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
