Is TOEFL iBT accepted by every university in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland?

Yes, ETS confirms that TOEFL iBT scores are accepted by 100 percent of universities in the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Ireland. You do not need to worry about individual university acceptance in these six countries.

Full Acceptance Across These Six Countries

Skip the Old Country-by-Country Numbers

You may come across older figures citing specific university counts for each country, but ETS's current position is simpler: full acceptance across these six major destinations, within its broader network of over 13,500 institutions worldwide. Rely on ETS's own statement rather than outdated per-country counts.

My Advice

If a shortlisted university ever questions your TOEFL score, point them to ETS's official acceptance statement rather than relying on secondhand numbers. This keeps your application conversations accurate and saves you unnecessary back-and-forth.
