TOEFL for Computer Science & IT in El Salvador — from Nicaragua

Planning to study Computer Science & IT in El Salvador from Nicaragua — perhaps as a software engineer or data scientist? Here's the TOEFL you'll need, the score range universities there look for, and how to confirm it on the new 1.0–6.0 scale.

The TOEFL score for Computer Science & IT in El Salvador

Salvadoran universities accept TOEFL for admission, especially graduate and international programmes (set per institution). Spanish-taught programmes use a Spanish-language test.

Most universities in El Salvador accept TOEFL for admission where an English-language test is required. Globally, TOEFL iBT is accepted by more than 13,000 universities and institutions across over 160 countries. Confirm the exact score your programme needs on its official admissions page.

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.

The Computer Science & IT requirement is set per programme (postgraduate often higher) — confirm the current figure on the university's official page. Many universities and visa authorities are still updating their thresholds during the 2026–2028 transition — confirm the current figure (and which scale, new 1–6 or old 0–120) on the official source before you rely on it.
