Foreign Language (TOEFL) examination<br />

and receive a minimum score of 575<br />

on the paper-based test and 230 on the<br />

computer-based test or 89 on the internetbased<br />

test. An offcial score report must<br />

be sent to the Admissions Offce. For<br />

A TOEFL score report is required for ALL<br />

international students.<br />

The SUNY English Profciency Report<br />

does replace the TOEFL examination that<br />

all international students are required to<br />

take.<br />
