DO I NEED TO PROVE ENGLISH PROFICIENCY?

International applicants whose primary language is not English must prove English
proficiency. Most undergraduate programs require a minimum score on one of
the following tests: TOEFL iBT (70), IELTS (6.0), Duolingo (100), and CEPT Full
Academic Test (100). Selective programs may have higher testing requirements.

The University of Arizona Center for English as a Second Language (CESL) also
provides English programs and pathways to assist students in meeting English
proficiency requirements for degree studies.

CESL’s Intensive English Program (IEP) focuses on reading writing, listening and
speaking to prepare students for progression to the Undergraduate University
Track (U-Track) Pathway program and then degree studies. Students can also
enter the U-Track Pathway directly without undertaking an EAP program if they
meet requirements.

Students successfully completing the U-Track Pathway can fulfill the university’s
minimum English language proficiency requirement without taking an additional
TOEFL or IELTS exam.
