TOEFL Scores. The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is given by Educational Testing Service (ETS).Their website address is http://www.ets.org/toefl.
Official score reports must be sent from ETS electronically to UC Davis (our Institution Code is 4834).
The minimum score required for admission to graduate study at UC Davis is 550 for the paper test or a score of 80 for the Internet-based test. TOEFL scores expire after two years. Scores that are older than two years will not be accepted by Graduate Studies.
Although an 80 iBT score is the minimum required for admission, additional English language testing may be required of admitted students with iBT scores below 104. Please go to http://iae.ucdavis.edu for details. Students with iBT scores of 104 or below will be required to take an additional ESL examination once they start their graduate program here to determine their level of English ability and whether they would benefit from additional ESL coursework at UC Davis.
IELTS Scores. As an alternative to the TOEFL, you may submit scores from the Academic Modules of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) designed by the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate and administered by the British Council worldwide. Their website address is http://www.ielts.org.
You are responsible for providing your graduate program with an official test report form showing the score you earned on your IELTS examination. Remember to order the test report form when you register to take the test.
The minimum band score required for admission to graduate study at UC Davis is 7 on a 9-point scale.
IELTS scores expire after two years. Scores that are older than two years will not be accepted by Graduate Studies.
