What TOEFL score do you need for Louisiana Tech University?

The graduate page says the official score must come from ETS, cannot be more than two years old, and goes to Louisiana Tech institution code 6372. It accepts the iBT Home Edition and the iBT Paper Edition at the same 80, and TOEFL Essentials at 8.5. Neither page lists section minimums or a MyBest policy.

For comparison, the undergraduate page sets IELTS at 6.5 alongside TOEFL 4.5, and the graduate page sets IELTS at 6.5 alongside TOEFL 80.

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.

Undergraduates can show English proficiency in other ways on the undergraduate page, including an SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing score of 500, an English Accuplacer score of 250, or a high school curriculum taught in English. Transfer students can use a passing grade in a university-level English class in the US. Neither page describes a conditional admission route tied to TOEFL.

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