Sending Your TOEFL iBT Scores

It is critical for the candidate to select Score Recipients prior to the TOEFL test. Your test fee includes up to four free official TOEFL score reports, which are sent to the institutions, agencies, or other recipients you specify prior to taking the test. You can add or delete recipients from your ETS account until 10 p.m. (local test center time) the day before your exam.

Please keep in mind that if you choose any institution or agency to receive your scores, you will be unable to request a score review for your Writing and/or Speaking sections.

When Institutions Will Receive Your Scores

Score delivery time varies depending on how your designated score recipients receive scores (all times are approximate).

• ETS Data Manager: 4–8 business days
• Server feeds: 8–10 business days
• Postal mail: Postal mail takes 10 to 12 business days, plus mailing time. Allow an additional 7-10 days for mail delivery within the United States and 4-6 weeks for mail delivery to other destinations.

Downloading your TOEFL test results is a simple process that can be done online using your ETS account. Following these steps and understanding how to send your scores effectively will ensure that you receive your results quickly and can use them effectively in your university applications.
