Demonstrating English Language Proficiency
While Hamilton does not have a specific score requirement for these English-proficiency exams, we recommend a minimum score of 100 on the Internet-based TOEFL exam, an overall band score of 7.0 for the IELTS, or a score of 120 on the DET for applicants to be competitive for admission.
In order to ensure students are not penalized by a lack of available testing dates or opportunities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hamilton will also accept the TOEFL Home Edition.
Official scores must be submitted to complete your application, and self-reported scores will not fulfill our requirement. Because Hamilton provides our applicants with many in person and virtual testing options to meet our English Language Proficiency requirement, this requirement will not typically be waived for non-Native English speakers.
Applicants who would like to request a waiver are able to do so via a form found on the checklist in their applicant portal.
