The TOEFL examination is offered in two formats:

• The traditional paper-based format (only offered on specific dates in a limited number of countries).
• The computer-based format (offered year-round).

Candidates in countries where the computer-based testing is not available must register for the paper-based TOEFL, which includes the Test of Written English (TWE) component. The computer-based test includes an essay-rating component, which is similar to the TWE.

To be considered for admission, all candidates must satisfy a minimum score requirement on all components.

Minimum required score:

iBT
Minimum overall score: 93
Minimum score in the writing and speaking sections: 22

Paper-based test
Minimum overall score: 580

Please ensure that your TOEFL results are sent to the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto (code: 8696-02).
