Do you want to study abroad?

Be anything and study anywhere with the TOEFL® tests

More than 10,000 universities and institutions in over 150 countries trust TOEFL test scores. These English language assessments measure your ability to use and understand English at the university level.

English as a Second Language (ESL) tests are popular for students, and are preferred by most universities in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the U.K., the U.S. and across Europe and Asia. If you’re planning on studying abroad at an institute of higher education, TOEFL tests can help you stand out from other applicants.

I sat the TOEFL iBT test during my Master’s application process, it was huge asset in my case. I got a high score, thanks to that I got a scholarship.
