Test rules at Inha

The page sets no section minimums or validity period and does not mention the Home Edition, MyBest scores or an institution code. Applications open from mid October for March entry and mid April for September entry, with exact dates announced by the International Center.

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 page, Inha asks IELTS 5.5 or above.

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