Are international students required to take the TOEFL, IELTS or Duolingo English Test?

A strong command of the English language is necessary for successful study at HandySchool. Applicants who meet one or both of the criteria below are considered proficient in English.

1. English is the applicant’s native language.
2. English has been the applicant’s primary language of instruction for the duration of high school.

If neither of these statements is true, applicants are required to take the TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo English Test to demonstrate English proficiency. Where the TOEFL iBT is not available due to COVID-19, applicants can take the TOEFL iBT Special Home Edition. Please note that HandySchool does not currently accept the IELTS Indicator exam or the MyBest score feature from TOEFL.
