English Proficiency
Johns Hopkins University requires students to have adequate English proficiency for their course of study. Students must be able to read, speak, and write English fluently upon their arrival at the University. Successful study demands the understanding oral lectures and taking comprehensive notes during lectures. Applicants whose native language is not English must submit proof of their proficiency in English before they can be offered admissions and before a visa certificate can be issued. Johns Hopkins prefers a minimum score of 600 (paper-based), 250 (computer-based), and 100 (internet-based) on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and IELTS Academic Band Score equal to 7. Results should be sent directly to the appropriate program by the Educational Testing Service (ETS) which administers TOEFL or captured by IELTS' Global Recognition System.
Please note that only selected departments accept the IELTS within the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and the Whiting School of Engineering.
