What Duolingo score do you need for Syracuse University?

Undergraduate score reports must be sent directly to the University by the testing service, only official scores count, and meeting the minimum does not guarantee admission. The Engineering and Computer Science graduate college requires TOEFL, IELTS or Duolingo, and you need to send only one.

For comparison, the undergraduate table gives preferred IELTS of 6.5+ for most colleges and 7.0+ for Whitman, Architecture and Newhouse; the engineering master's page lists IELTS 6.5 and Whitman's MS page IELTS Academic 7.0.

Syracuse offers undergraduate conditional admission when the academic requirements are met but English is insufficient, which you can fulfil through the English Language Institute or a later test. However, the undergraduate requirements page says only applicants who submitted an official TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge or PTE Academic score may be considered for conditional admission, so a Duolingo score on its own does not open that route.

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