Compare your English test scores
See approximate IELTS, TOEFL and PTE equivalents. Always confirm the exact score each university and the visa require.
Approximate equivalents only. Each university sets its own accepted tests and scores, and the Student-visa SELT requirement is separate — confirm both.

TOEFL iBT79–93
PTE Academic58–64
Indicative ranges, not an official concordance. Always check each university's accepted tests and the visa SELT requirement on GOV.UK. Study UK Now confirms both for your shortlist.
