Fudan TOEFL minimums by programme
From the Master in Global Public Policy page and the MSc in Data Science and Business Analytics page. Fudan does not publish one university-wide TOEFL figure on these pages.
| Level or programme | TOEFL minimum | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Master in Global Public Policy (MGPP) | 90 | Page says TOEFL; it does not name the format |
| MSc Data Science and Business Analytics | 90 (TOEFL iBT) | Or IELTS, GMAT 650 or GRE 315 |
Test rules at Fudan
Neither page sets section minimums, a validity period, a Home Edition rule or an institution code. The MSc page says applicants must submit at least one of TOEFL, IELTS, GMAT or GRE at the listed minimums, and that a bachelor's degree from an English-speaking country or citizenship of one removes the need for TOEFL or IELTS.
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. The page above gives only 0 to 120 figures, so that is what this guide reports.
On the same pages, both programmes ask IELTS 6.5.

If your TOEFL score falls short
The pages read do not describe a conditional or pre-sessional route. Other Fudan programmes may set different levels.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Fudan programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
