How can I get a college abroad after clearing TOEFL

Shraya Singh 28th Nov, 2018


Hello,

In order to gain admission abroad, there are certain requirements you need to fulfill. These include the academic requirements of the university and program such as past scores, subjects required, and other standardized test scores (like entrance tests). The other major eligibility requirement for studying abroad is English language proficiency.

English language proficiency proof needs to be submitted by all candidates whose first language is not English. Therefore, Indian students are required to submit proof of English language proficiency. This can be satisfied by submitting scores of internationally accepted English language proficiency tests like TOEFL iBT and IELTS Academic. Most universities have a minimum score requirement that applicants need to fulfill in order to be eligible to apply for admission to the university.

TOEFL is the most widely accepted English language proficiency test, especially in the United States. Although a good TOEFL score does not ensure admission, but it makes you eligible to apply for admission. For most top universities, the minimum score required for TOEFL iBT ranges anywhere from 79 - 110 depending upon the university and program of application.
