What TOEFL score do you need for St. Mary's University, Texas?

The graduate section says scores must be current, no further back than six months of the application. Graduate students with 80 to 82 on the internet-based TOEFL must enrol in EN6301 Academic Writing for International Students during their first semester.

For comparison, the same page sets IELTS at 6.0 for both levels.

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.

A high school diploma, associate degree, bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited U.S. institution meets the English requirement, and citizens of listed countries such as Australia, the Bahamas and Barbados are exempt. Undergraduates may also have AP, IB and other international curricula considered in place of a test. St. Mary's runs an Intensive English Program through International Student and Scholar Services.

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