How TWU handles Duolingo scores

TWU's chart applies to tests completed within the last two years, and Duolingo scores must be provided electronically by Duolingo. For any English test older than two years, original score reports are required, mailed or presented in person; emailed reports are not valid.

Applicants may instead submit an English proficiency exemption form with supporting documents.

For comparison, the same proficiency page sets IELTS Academic at 6.5 or above.

If your Duolingo score is below TWU's level

Neither page describes conditional admission or an English pathway. The proficiency page offers exemption forms for undergraduate and graduate applicants who qualify.

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