How MIT handles TOEFL scores
English test results must be valid before the date your MIT course starts, and MIT assesses every applicant individually.
MIT gives its TOEFL figures on the 0 to 120 scale. Since January 2026 TOEFL iBT score reports also carry a 1 to 6 band score; see the new TOEFL score scale.
For comparison, the same page sets Academic IELTS 6.0 (no band below 5.5) for the bachelor's degrees and 6.5 (no band below 6.0) for the Master of Professional Accounting.
Your offer and your visa are separate. Home Affairs says that for a TOEFL iBT result to be valid for Australian visa purposes you must select 'Taking TOEFL for Australia' when you register, and it lists TOEFL iBT Home Edition among the online tests it does not accept (Home Affairs English page).

If your TOEFL score is below MIT's level
Where you do not meet the English requirement, MIT says it will consider packaging your main course with its English and Academic Preparation (EAP) program. An ELICOS pathway is also listed as evidence of English.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your MIT programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
