Endicott IELTS and other test minimums
From Endicott's international undergraduate admission page and its graduate international students page. Both pages list the overall score only and publish no section minimums.
| Programme | IELTS | Other tests |
|---|---|---|
| International undergraduate | 6.0 | TOEFL 79, Duolingo 105, Pearson PTE 53 |
| Graduate (international students) | 6.0 | TOEFL 79, Duolingo 105; also proof of English instruction at your previous institution |
Waivers and who should write to admissions
The undergraduate page says English language test scores can be waived in some cases and that requests go to admission@endicott.edu. It does not list the cases, so write to admissions with your school or degree details before you pay for a test.
The graduate page asks for current test scores and, separately, proof of English language instruction at your previous educational institution. Treat the two as separate documents on your checklist.

Checking your course before you book
Endicott's pages do not mention a pre-sessional or conditional route for English, so plan on meeting the score before you apply. Graduate courses in teaching, nursing and interior architecture sit in different schools, so confirm that no extra requirement applies to your course.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Endicott programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
Minimum vs competitive score
Where Endicott College publishes an IELTS score, it is the minimum: the floor an application has to meet to be considered, not a score that guarantees an offer.
Competitive programmes, and courses with far more applicants than places, may expect more than the minimum, and some departments set their own overall or per-skill scores, often for writing or speaking. The course page has the final word, so check it before you book a test.
If you are close to the line, aim for a margin above it: one weak skill can miss the requirement even when the overall band clears it. Not sure where you stand? Take a free IELTS mock test and get a band for each skill.
