How UNF handles TOEFL scores

The page lists the TOEFL among the test-score indicators and gives the same figure at both levels. It does not state section minimums, a TOEFL code, a MyBest policy or a validity period.

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 a page above gives only a 0 to 120 figure, that is the figure this guide reports.

For comparison, UNF asks for IELTS 6.5 at both levels on the same page.

If your TOEFL score is below UNF's level

Undergraduates can meet the requirement with a Pre-University completion certificate from the UNF English Language Program with a 3.0 average, among other indicators. Graduate applicants can ask their Graduate Program Director to consider other criteria, such as a degree taught in English; the director must then confirm approval to the Graduate School.

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