What is TOEFL?

TOEFL stands for “Test of English as a Foreign Language.” If you’re non-native English speaker, you will probably need to appear in the TOEFL entrance test to study in a college or university or anywhere in the United States. In fact, the TOEFL preparation is mandatory in academic settings to be sure to get you through any English-speaking environment. The good news is that the TOEFL is offered in hundreds of locations all over the USA.

Why take the TOEFL?

The TOEFL is created for those who plan to go to an English-speaking university or graduate school. As academic language is often dense and formal, even people who’ve studied English for many years can struggle in an English academic environment. Before a university accepts you into an academic program, the admissions board wants to know that you can handle the course load of an English-based program: they use your TOEFL score as a standardized metric for your English skills.

If you’re an international student applying to schools in a country where the primary language is English, you’ll most likely be required to take the TOEFL preparation as part of your application.
