TOEFL for Tunisia from Saint Lucia (2026)

From Saint Lucia, funded study is the goal — and TOEFL is widely accepted for US and university places. Some scholarships specify IELTS, so check each. Here's the honest TOEFL picture for Tunisia on the new 1–6 scale.

Coming from Saint Lucia: funded study and which test the scholarship accepts

  • Named scholarships you may search: Chevening, Commonwealth Scholarships, OECS / UWI scholarships, Fulbright (Eastern Caribbean) — most accept TOEFL or IELTS, but confirm each programme's accepted tests.
  • TOEFL is widely accepted for university admission; for any visa or PR step, check that route separately (TOEFL is not accepted for Canada PR or UK visas).
  • Recognition: OECS / UWI for recognition; Ministry of Education.

⚠️ TOEFL changed on 21 January 2026

TOEFL changed completely on 21 January 2026 — a new 1.0–6.0 band scale, adaptive Reading and Listening, new Speaking and Writing tasks, about 90 minutes, results in ~72 hours. Any prep from before January 2026 is obsolete. And during the 2026–2028 transition some universities still list old 0–120 requirements — check both.

How the new TOEFL score works

Your overall TOEFL score is now the AVERAGE of the four sections (Reading, Listening, Speaking, Writing), each scored 1.0–6.0 in half-band steps — not the old 0–120 sum. The scale is CEFR-aligned.

  • Band 6.0C2 (mastery)
  • Band 5.0–5.5C1 (advanced)
  • Band 4.0–4.5B2 (upper-intermediate) — common university target
  • Band 3.0–3.5B1 (intermediate)
