Test rules at TMU

The application page strongly encourages you to send scores electronically from the testing service so they can be verified, and gives TOEFL institution code 3225. Some programmes, such as Pharmacognosy and Data Science, list no programme-specific requirement. No page gives section minimums, a validity period, or Home Edition or MyBest rules.

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.

In the same programme rows, the IELTS alternative is 5.5.

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