Hi everyone! I'm an international student and I want to apply to MIT. Does anyone know if they accept Duolingo scores for their English proficiency requirements?
Yes, MIT does accept Duolingo English Test scores as a way to meet the English proficiency requirement for international applicants. As of the 2024-2025 application cycle, MIT accepts the following tests to demonstrate English proficiency:
1. TOEFL iBT: Minimum score of 90.
2. IELTS Academic: Minimum score of 7.0.
3. Duolingo English Test: Minimum score of 120.
4. PTE Academic: Minimum score of 65.
5. The C1 Advanced and C2 Proficiency exams from Cambridge English Assessment: Minimum passing score for either of these.
Please note that these are minimum scores, and higher scores will be more competitive. You only need to submit one of the above tests to meet the English proficiency requirement. Before you take the Duolingo English Test or any other test, double-check MIT's website for the most current requirements and any updates regarding their admissions process. Good luck with your application!
