What TOEFL score do you need for High Point University?

The page asks for an official TOEFL iBT sent with school code 5293. Meeting 80 shows the minimum proficiency for admission; it does not replace the ESL placement exam taken after admission. Any ESL classes required fulfil the Foreign Language part of the General Education requirements.

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. Where a page above gives only a 0 to 120 figure, that is the figure this guide reports.

For comparison, the same page sets IELTS at 6.5 or higher.

The page lists other ways to meet the requirement, including Duolingo 105, a 4-skills MELAB of 77, iTEP 3.8, SAT English 500, ACT English 20, completing the INTERLINK Intensive English Program or ELS Level 112, and two consecutive years at and graduation from an accredited US high school.

Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your High Point programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
