How Wright State handles TOEFL scores
Graduate students may also be asked by their advisers to take an English writing placement test, and failing it can add classes. The pages do not mention MyBest, Essentials, the Home Edition, a validity period or an institution code.
For comparison, the undergraduate page sets IELTS at 5.5 with no band below 5.0, and the graduate page sets IELTS at band 6.

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