Test rules and how to send your score
EWU asks you to request that your PTE Academic scores be sent directly to EWU Graduate Programs by the testing organisation; when it receives a notification it collects all available scores. The page does not mention PTE Academic Online, PTE Core, a validity period or a Pearson code.
In the same table, IELTS is 6.0 at the minimum and 7.0 for full admission, against PTE 59 and 63.

If you fall short
A score at the minimum rather than the recommended level ties graduate applicants to EWU's English Language Institute. Applicants with a bachelor's degree from an accredited US university do not need to submit scores, nor do those with a degree from a listed country, proved by a course-by-course evaluation.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your EWU programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
