What TOEFL score do you need for VU Amsterdam?

TOEFL Essentials, the TOEFL iBT Home Edition and MyBest scores are not accepted. Tests must have been completed no more than two years before 1 September of the year your course starts (or 1 February for a February intake). VU continues to accept old-scale reports for the two years each one is valid. To have your TOEFL verified, add VU's institution code 7947 before the report is sent. VU also runs its own TOEFL ITP, with 580 needed for bachelor's entry, but it is not accepted for students who need a study visa or residence permit.

For comparison, the bachelor's page sets IELTS Academic at 6.5 overall for most programmes, and 6.5 with at least 6.0 in each component for PPE.

The master's page says you can start your application before you meet the English requirement, and that a pre-Master's programme has the same English requirement as the matching Master's. It recommends leaving time for a retake and gives final submission deadlines of 1 June for students needing a visa or residence permit and 31 August for others.

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