TOEFL iBT (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is an internationally recognised, standardised test that assesses the English proficiency of non-native speakers in listening, reading, speaking, and writing. TOEFL iBT is one of the world's leading tests for study, work, and immigration and is accepted by over 13,000 universities and institutions in more than 160 countries. Universities in the USA and other English-speaking countries often require it as an admission prerequisite. Globally, over 35 million people have taken the TOEFL test to demonstrate their English language skills.
The Cambridge Institut Munich is an authorised test center and administers the test on behalf of ETS, the TOEFL test provider. Registration and scheduling are done directly through ETS:
