What Duolingo score do you need for UMKC?

The undergraduate level is the only one on the English proficiency page with a Duolingo subscore rule: 90 in every subscore as well as 100 overall. Programme levels replace the university minimum where they are higher, so check your programme's row.

For computer science, data science, physics, chemistry and engineering, master's and PhD applicants with a bachelor's or master's degree from Bangladesh, Egypt, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka or Turkey do not need to submit proof of English. The page does not give a Duolingo validity period, a sending instruction or a teaching assistant level.

Compared with IELTS: undergraduates need IELTS 6.0 (5.5 in all bands) or Duolingo 100, and graduate applicants IELTS 6.5 (6.0 in all bands) or Duolingo 110.

For the Conservatory, the English proficiency page says students may be considered for conditional admission if their scores meet the UMKC undergraduate minimums, and can begin their programme after completing the Applied Language Institute's required English coursework.

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