TOEFL for Social Sciences in Iceland — from Guyana

Planning to study Social Sciences in Iceland from Guyana — perhaps as a social scientist or policy professional? 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 Social Sciences in Iceland

English-taught and international programmes at Icelandic universities accept TOEFL for admission (set per institution — no fixed national figure). Icelandic-taught programmes use a Icelandic-language test instead.

Most universities in Iceland 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 Social Sciences 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.
