Validity of TOEFL score

by g.shankaran » Sat May 21, 2011 3:11 am
Hi,

I have taken TOEFL iBT on Aug 28th, 2010 and got a score of 110. I am applying for Sep 2012. Do I need to give the test once again? I have been hearing that score should be valid on the date of joining the school.

Please clarify.

Thanks
Shankaran

Most probably not.

I think it should be valid during application only. Even otherwise, you will be joining around August 2012. (Atleast orientation and stuff begin early.) So you should be fine. Dont worry about it for now. Just apply and then if any school asks you, then you can think about it.

I dont know anyone who was asked to retake TOEFL.
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)
