TOEFL or IELTS official scores are required for nonnative speaking applicants only and must be reported directly to IU Indianapolis. Test scores are not required if the applicant has earned (or will earn) a bachelor’s or master’s degree from a country where English is the official language (please refer to the Office of International Affairs website.)  The department will only consider applications once the required minimum score is met and does not offer admission to applicants not meeting the required minimum scores.

  • Please have ETS submit your scores directly to IU Indianapolis, as we cannot accept self-reported scores. The Iu Indianapolis Institution Code for ETS is #1325.
  • Recommended minimum scores for applicants who are nonnative speakers of English: 100 TOEFL iBT; 7.0 IELTS.

Additional information about international admissions can be obtained from the Office of International Affairs.
