Access Free Information, Scholarships for Exam
TOEFL, Test Of English as a Foreign Language, is an exam required by many American colleges that determines whether non-native students can understand and use the English language at a college level. The exam is administered worldwide and is usually taken online, though when that is not possible, a paper exam is provided.
There is a fee involved in taking the TOEFL exam; and in some instances, for preparation assistance prior to the exam.
Two TOEFL Test Types
There are ’Institutional‘ and ’International‘ TOEFL exams. The Institutional TOEFL is one given by a particular institution, such as a business entity, to assess a non-native person‘s understanding of the English language. The score received on this may not be accepted at other institutions. The International TOEFL exam is given worldwide, and the score is accepted at all institutions worldwide.
Financial Assistance for the TOEFL
It can be difficult to locate and obtain a scholarship, fee reduction, or fee waiver to pay for the TOEFL examination. There is some financial assistance available, but competition for it is heavy. Besides the resources listed below, anyone interested in obtaining financial help with taking the TOEFL may also want to contact their local American Embassy for information on the Fulbright Competition; or their high school guidance counselor.
