PTE for Togolese candidates — no centre in Togo, the nearest options and fees

Togo is not in the country list of Pearson's price finder. These are the nearest countries that are; each price covers PTE Academic, PTE Academic UKVI and PTE Core.

Check the entry rules for the country you will test in before you book. If your university or visa accepts IELTS, the Lomé centres (€290) save the trip.

Australia's thresholds are per skill for tests from 7 August 2025: Competent 47 listening, 48 reading, 51 writing, 54 speaking; Proficient 58 / 59 / 69 / 76 for 10 points; Superior 69 / 70 / 85 / 88 for 20. Canada does not accept PTE Academic for Express Entry: PTE Core CLB 7 is listening 60, reading 60, writing 69, speaking 68. UK visas need 59 in each skill for B2. The United States sets no IELTS or PTE score for the student visa: each university sets its own, and some do not accept PTE at all.

French speakers have a second route into Express Entry: IRCC also accepts two French tests, TEF Canada and TCF Canada, measured on the NCLC scale, and the English and French results must each be less than two years old.

Each university sets its own English score, and some do not take PTE at all. Universities we checked on their official pages:

McGill accepts IELTS (including IELTS for UKVI) only when sent electronically by the test centre, and does not accept One Skill Retake. McGill does not accept PTE, IELTS Online or One Skill Retake for graduate admission. Toronto accepts IELTS Online and UKVI sittings of both tests, but not One Skill Retake, and wants every IELTS score from a single test date. ASU asks more for some colleges: engineering is IELTS 6.5 or PTE 58, and its nursing degree does not accept PTE. Closer to home, Ashesi University in Ghana asks international students who were not taught in English at secondary school for evidence of English such as TOEFL or IELTS, without publishing a minimum score, and accepts the French Baccalaureate for admission.
