What TOEFL score do you need for Umeå University?

Umeå says detailed English requirements are on the national University Admissions website, which handles applications. The Umeå page does not mention the Home Edition, MyBest scores, validity or an institution code.

On the same page, English 6 is equivalent to IELTS 6.5 with no section below 5.5.

Umeå says the English requirement can also be met through previous upper-secondary or university studies in certain countries.

TOEFL iBT score reports issued since January 2026 also carry a 1 to 6 band score alongside the 0 to 120 total; see our guide to the new TOEFL score scale. Where the page gives only a 0 to 120 figure, that is what this guide reports.

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