Success in Tai Sophia’s graduate degree programs is dependent on a student’s ability to communicate in English. This ability not only includes comprehending, reading, and writing English, but specifically the ability to understand the nuances in the language and to speak effectively. This level of proficiency is greater than that which is required for daily living. The requirements stated below are in place to ensure a student’s ability to take full advantage of the academic programs and serve the outside community as practitioners.

Students who are non-native English speakers may be required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the TOEFL Internet based Test (IBT). Tai Sophia Institute’s school code is 8400. Contact TOEFL directly at toefl.org for information about registering for the test. If you have any questions related to fulfilling the language requirement, please speak with an admissions counselor.
