Whether you’re applying as a freshman or transfer student, you must demonstrate proficiency in English to be considered for admission to any of our campuses.
Applying as a freshman?
If you’ve completed all your secondary school/high school in a country where English is not the language of instruction, you can demonstrate proficiency by taking one of these exams and earning the required scores:
Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) examination: Accepted with an 80 or better for the Internet-based test and 550 or better for the paper-based test
International English Language Testing System (IELTS) examination (academic modules): Accepted with a 6.5 or better band score (academic modules)
Keep in mind: A UC campus may require a score higher than the minimum for admission selection.
How do I send my scores to UC?
For TOEFL, you can send your scores to one UC campus, and all campuses you apply to will receive it. For IELTS, be sure to arrange to have your scores reported to each campus to which you apply.
These scores must be received no later than January if you're applying for the fall term. We strongly recommend that you take the test as early as possible, because your score may be a factor in whether or not we're able to admit you.
Information about these exams is available at most U.S. consulates and overseas U.S. educational advising offices, as well as by mail and online:
