Test rules and how PTE compares with IELTS

TWU verifies PTE online: submit your PTE Score Report Code to srp@twu.edu. For tests older than two years, original score reports are required, mailed or presented in person; emailed reports are not valid. The page does not mention PTE Academic Online or PTE Core.

On the same table, IELTS Academic is 6.5 or above, TOEFL iBT is 79 (or 4 for tests from 21 January 2026), and Duolingo is 100. PTE 53 is TWU's equivalent of IELTS 6.5.

If you fall short

TWU's page does not describe a conditional admission or English pathway route. Applicants who qualify for an exemption submit the undergraduate or graduate English Proficiency Test Exemption Form with supporting documents instead of a test score.

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.
