English
All international students must demonstrate English proficiency for admission into Indiana University Indianapolis graduate and professional programs. Non-native English speaking domestic applicants may also be required to complete standardized testing dependent on their English proficiency.
There are many different ways to demonstrate your English proficiency to meet our graduate or professional admission requirements. Please make careful note of the minimum requirements for the graduate programs shown below. Additionally, some graduate programs only accept the TOEFL, and some may require a score higher than the minimum campus standard. Verify this information with your program before selecting an alternative to the TOEFL.
