TOEFL Waiver • Graduate Admissions • Penn Carey Law

Applicants with valid recent TOEFL/IELTS scores are not eligible for a waiver.

If you have taken the TOEFL/IELTS since September 1, 2021, and feel that your score is not an accurate reflection of your English language ability, simply explain that in an addendum to your personal statement. You may also consider submitting a letter of recommendation that discusses your English language abilities.

Please note that a waiver will be premised on your representations, as well as your agreement to:

1) participate in further assessment upon request; and

2) provide us with all past TOEFL or IELTS scores, as well as any new scores immediately after you receive them.
