Sending and IELTS comparison
The engineering page says official IELTS and Duolingo score reports should be sent directly to Temple University from the testing provider. First-year applicants do not need an English test if English is their native language or they have completed three or more years in an English-only curriculum.
IELTS comparison: the first-year page asks IELTS 6.0 for university admission (5.5 for University Bridge), and the graduate page asks 6.5.

If your score is lower
The first-year page publishes a University Bridge Admission column for each test; for Duolingo it is 100-105. The graduate pages give no conditional Duolingo range.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your Temple programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
