We strongly recommend a score of 125 for the DET, 104 or higher on the internet-based TOEFL, and 7 for the IELTS (students must take the Academic test, not the General Training test).

The only exception to the English language proficiency requirement is for applicants who have studied in full-time status for at least two full academic years within the last five years at a high school or college where the primary language of instruction is English, engaging in a regular academic curriculum taught in English (in other words, not engaged in English as a Second Language or similar coursework), in a country where English is one of the official languages. Students must submit transcripts that demonstrate that they meet the conditions for a waiver of the English language proficiency requirement.

Students who have studied in English in other countries are not exempt from the English language proficiency requirement.

If students meet the above conditions for eligibility, they should submit a written request for a waiver of the requirement to [email protected]. They will receive a confirmation of their waiver eligibility and application instructions via email.
