TOEFL®: Your To-Do List for Before and After Test Day

before and after test day before and after test day
  • Plan to take the TOEFL® test 2 to 3 months before your earliest application deadline.

  • Create an online account and register for the TOEFL® test.

  • Make sure the ID you will bring to the test center matches the name you use when you register.

  • A couple days before the test, log in to your TOEFL® online account and check your Registration Confirmation, in case a change of time or location was made at your test center.

  • Select, change or delete score recipients in your TOEFL® online account. You may select up to 4 universities or programs for free, and can add, delete or change recipients up until 10 p.m. (local test center time) the night before the test.

  • 10 days after test day, you should receive an email saying your scores are ready. To check your scores, log in to your TOEFL® online account and select View Scores from your Home Page.

  • On the day of the test, remember to arrive at the test center at least 30 minutes before your start time. And be sure to bring your photo ID. Good luck!
