UTS College TOEFL rules
The table gives no 0 to 120 TOEFL figures, so check with UTS College admissions before relying on an older score report that shows only the 0 to 120 total. The page names TOEFL iBT among the high-stakes tests it accepts, alongside IELTS, PTE Academic and Cambridge C1 Advanced and C2 Proficiency.
For comparison, the same table asks IELTS Academic 5.5 with 5.0 in writing for Foundation Studies (3 trimesters), 6.0 with 6.0 in writing for diplomas, and 6.5 with 6.0 in writing for accelerated pre-master's programs.

If your TOEFL score falls short
UTS College's own Academic English course is an alternative: AE3 with a pass meets Foundation entry, AE4 the diplomas and standard pre-master's, and AE5 the accelerated pre-master's. The page also lists alternative qualifications taken in English.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your UTS College programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
