Compare undergraduate requirements

This filter compares overall benchmarks only. Subscores and program conditions still apply. ASU uses its general-program minimum; MIT uses its minimum, not its recommended score. Purdue’s 115 is published applicant guidance, not an automatic admission cutoff.

Before you apply

Check more than the overall number

  1. Find the right policy. Match the university, campus, degree level, program, and intake.
  2. Read the subscore conditions. Toronto lists Production; Waterloo lists Literacy and Production; UBC Vancouver lists four individual skill minimums.
  3. Check dates and delivery. Confirm test validity, deadlines, and how the institution wants results sent.
  4. Use the accepted test. An IELTS comparison does not replace a DET requirement or establish acceptance of another test.

After setting your target, open the DET scoring guide to read your report or choose focused practice. Meeting an English threshold does not guarantee admission.

Coverage & sources

A small directory with a source for every policy

PrepEx checked the linked university admissions pages on . Each profile states the scope reviewed and links to the institution’s own policy. The directory is a selected reference, not a ranking or a comprehensive acceptance list.

Policies can change. The university’s current program and intake requirements control your application. These profiles do not imply a university partnership with or endorsement of PrepEx.
