Students who take a TOEFL test on or after 26 October 2019 will be able to view their TOEFL score online approximately six days after the test date, cutting the previous 10-day wait period almost in half. Official score reports will also be sent to institutions faster, as early as nine days after the test date.
According to Srikant Gopal, Executive Director of the TOEFL Program at ETS, the change will benefit both students and educational institutions, granting them more flexibility. He said:
Executing a faster score turnaround was a major priority for us based on the feedback we’ve heard from students and institutions. Shortening the waiting period for retesting and adding afternoon test sessions provided students with additional opportunities to test sooner and more frequently if they need to. Therefore, creating a faster score reporting process to accompany those just made sense – something that is beneficial for both students and institutions.
