Sending scores and the IELTS comparison
The undergraduate page says to log in to your account on the testing service's website and send Duolingo scores to "University of Louisiana at Lafayette". The Graduate School page says Duolingo scores are valid for two years, and to allow two to four weeks for delivery and processing.
Neither page gives a Duolingo level for graduate assistantships.
Compared with IELTS: both pages ask for IELTS 6.5, alongside Duolingo 100 for undergraduates and 110 for graduate study.
