EAP TOEFL Waivers

Our English for Academic Preparation program offers two TOEFL waiver options for admission to SFSU non-impacted undergraduate programs. Either waiver meets the University’s English proficiency requirement. You do not need to complete the highest level to qualify.

TOEFL Waiver One

You must place into and successfully complete the high-intermediate level (70) with a B average or better in all courses. You must also earn one of the following scores at the beginning or end of the term:

• TOEFL ITP: 475
• TOEFL iBT: 53
• IELTS: 5.5

TOEFL Waiver Two

You must successfully complete the advanced level (80) or (90) with a B average or better in all courses, including electives and SFSU classes.

No English proficiency test score is required.
