Students who earned a bachelor's degree in a country where English is not the official language and for whom English is not their first language must submit scores from the TOEFL, or International English Language Testing System (IELTS) that are no more than two years old.

Requirements:

The following scores are sufficient to demonstrate the requisite proficiency in English for admission directly into Pace's academic programs:

If you are applying to programs within the Seidenberg School of Computer Science & Information Systems, School of Education, College of Health Professions, or the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences (except for the MA in Media and Communication Arts):
  • TOEFL scores of 570 (paper-based version), 230 (computer-based version), 88/89 (Internet-based version).
  • IELTS score of 7.0

If you are applying to programs within the Lubin School of Business, or the MA in Media and Communication Arts:

  • TOEFL scores of 600 (paper-based version), 250 (computer-based version), 100 (Internet-based version)
  • IELTS score of 7.5
The TOEFL codes for Pace University are as follows:
Westchester Campus: 2685
New York City Campus: 2635
If your TOEFL or IELTS scores are below the minimums stated above or Admission determines that you need additional English language preparation to be a fully matriculated student, you could be a candidate for the Pace University Global Pathways program. Once you submit your application, the Admission Committee will advise you about being admitted into this program.


Additional Information:

All accepted students are required to take University Placement Exams prior to registration. Students may be restricted to intensive English course work for at least one semester, which may extend the length of time and cost of completing a degree.
 
The Admission Committee may require additional testing if there are concerns about your ability to read, write, and speak English sufficiently to meet the demands of your intended curriculum, based on the materials you submitted as part of your application or on written or verbal communications with you after you submitted your application.
