How Edge Hill handles TOEFL scores
Edge Hill accepts the TOEFL iBT or the iBT Special Home Edition. Your certificate must be within its validity period; the page gives two years for IELTS, Pearson and Trinity SELTs but does not state a TOEFL period. MyBest scores and an institution code are not mentioned.
For comparison, the same page sets IELTS Academic at 6.0 with no element below 5.5 for undergraduates and 6.5 with no element below 6.0 for taught postgraduates.

If your TOEFL score is below Edge Hill's level
Edge Hill runs pre-sessional English programmes before undergraduate and postgraduate study. Their entry tables list IELTS and other tests but do not give a TOEFL level.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Edge Hill programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
