Notes on Submission of TOEFL iBT Scores

2025.12.22 Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, the University of Tokyo Guidelines for Submission of TOEFL Scores (for AY2027 Entrance Examinations) Applicants for AY2027 entrance examinations (conducted in AY2026) must submit their TOEFL iBT or TOEFL iBT Home Edition scores (Official TOEFL Score Report (Institutional Score Report)) as instructed below. * MyBest™ scores are not accepted. * Test Taker Score Reports are not accepted. * Applicants who complete (or are expected to complete) a Master's program at UTokyo may be exempted from submitting their TOEFL iBT scores if they apply for a doctoral program. Check the Admission Guide of each department for further details. * Even applicants who are native English speakers must submit a TOEFL score. * There is no way for applicants to check if their scores have arrived at the Graduate School of IST in time. If the Admissions Office of Graduate School of IST does not receive the score report data by the deadline for the arrival of the TOEFL iBT score report data (see p.2), the Admissions Office of Graduate School of IST will contact the applicant via the email address specified in the application form. Please understand that we cannot answer any inquiries about whether or not we have accepted the scores. * Even if you submit a TOEFL score that you have previously submitted (including the score submitted for the most recent Summer Entrance Exams in case you apply for the Winter Entrance Exams), you must request ETS to send the score to us again. 【How to submit TOEFL iBT Scores】 Obtain a TOEFL iBT score by the time of application for the entrance examinations. (Make sure that you can see your score on your ETS account by the time of application for the entrance examinations.) Please note the Validity Period for a TOEFL iBT score (see p. 2). Applicants can see their TOEFL scores on their ETS account within 72 hours* after the test date (*On or after January 21, 2026) . For convenience, we consider that your TOEFL score has been obtained by the time of application for the entrance examinations if its test date falls within the Validity Period fora TOEFL iBT score (see p. 2) . Due to potential problems during the TOEFL iBT test, such as network or audio troubles, you may need to retake the test, or it may take a long time for your score to be issued. We therefore recommend you take the test early so that the score report data will arrive at the Graduate School of IST in time. Please note that, in particular with the TOEFL iBT Home Edition, it is not uncommon for applicants to fail to complete the test for some reasons. Please select the score recipients on your ETS account and complete the score sending procedure before taking the TOEFL so that your score report will be sent directly from ETS to our graduate school (see "Score Recipient Information" given below) If this procedure was not completed before taking the TOEFL, please make sure to send your score report through your ETS account as soon as possible prior to the time of application for the entrance examinations. If you notice that the score report was not sent correctly after applying for the entrance examinations, please promptly resend the score report through your ETS account. If this procedure has been completed and there is no problem during your TOEFL iBT test, we will receive your score report data online via ETS® Data Manager about two weeks after you take the TOEFL. The score will be considered to have arrived when our graduate school receives the score report data online (through ETS® Data Manager) . * You may send us all the scores if you took multiple tests. However, only the score with the appointment number and test date stated on your application form (see ④) will be valid. Score Recipient Information (If the score report is sent to a wrong destination, our graduate school will not be able to confirm the score report data.): ➢ Name of Institution: Unive
