If your first language is not English, you must certify proficiency in English when you apply to UCLA. If you are admitted, you may also be required to confirm your proficiency upon arrival.
Submit your scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) as part of your application. The TOEFL is administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS). IELTS is administered by local IELTS test centers throughout the world. Consult IELTS for the test center nearest your home or university.
Your test results can help you determine whether you are prepared to undertake graduate study conducted in English before making extensive plans for graduate study in the U.S.
Minimum IELTS & TOEFL Scores
Your IELTS overall band score should be at least 7.0. 7.0 is the minimumrequired.
Your TOEFL score on the paper and pencil test must be at least 560 or at least87 on the internet-based test. These scores represent the minimum required for applicants to graduate programs at UCLA. Some of our majors may require higher scores as noted in Departmental Information.
For the internet-based TOEFL (TOEFL iBT), the following are the expected scores for each section:
Writing: 25
Speaking: 24
Reading: 21
Listening: 17
Please note that these expected section scores help you judge your English language ability in different areas.
Your application is not complete without the test scores.
TOEFL scores should be sent to your major department. Be sure to list the TOEFL institution code for UCLA 4837.
Ask IELTS to send your scores to your major department and the Graduate Division.
Foreign language ability can fade quickly, so please note that TOEFL and IELTS scores are considered valid for only two years. The scores must be valid at the time you submit your application. If you took the examination multiple times, only the most recent score is considered.
