The Hague UAS TOEFL test rules
THUAS accepts the TOEFL iBT, not the ITP, and only single test-day results. It does not accept home editions, with temporary exemptions for men and women living in Iran and women living in Afghanistan. Tests must be taken at a test centre, and test dates may not be older than two years on 1 September 2027. Ask ETS to send your scores to institution code 7042.
For comparison, the same page asks for IELTS Academic 6.0 for four-year bachelor's and does not accept IELTS Online or One Skill Retake.

If your TOEFL score is below THUAS's level
The page describes no conditional English route. Some diplomas give an exemption, such as education in the UK, Ireland, the US, Canada (except Quebec), Australia, New Zealand, South Africa or Malta, or an International or European Baccalaureate, though THUAS may still ask for a test.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your THUAS programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
