For purposes of admission, your most recent score must be at least 90 for the Internet-based test (IBT), and 570 for the paper-based format (PBT). Please contact individual academic departments for more information, as they may choose to require a higher score. The IBT emphasizes integrated skills so its format and scoring are different from the PBT version of the TOEFL. Please plan to take the TOEFL as soon as possible, regardless of the test’s format, to avoid delays in the review of your application.

As an exception, you can submit scores from the Academic Modules of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), which is jointly managed by the British Council, IDP:IELTS Australia, and the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations. You are responsible for providing us with an official Test Report Form (TRF) of your IELTS. Remember to order the TRF when you register to take the test. For Fall 2019, tests taken before June 1, 2017 will not be accepted. Your most recent overall Band score must be at least 7 on a 9-point scale.

Your electronic scores for the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) will be available to link to your application if you listed Berkeley as one of your requested institutions. The institution code for UC Berkeley is 4833. You will need this so your scores can be delivered electronically to the Berkeley database. On the Berkeley application, you will input your 7 digit Registration Code from ETS that you got when taking the GRE exam. If you took the GRE multiple times, you can select your highest scoring exam and submit the Registration Code for these scores. When reporting GRE scores, you may not mix and match the highest quantitative and verbal scores from different exams.
