The typical answer to this question is no, but you should refer to the TOEFL section of the application for waiver qualifications.

The candidate has received a bachelor's (or equivalent) from an institution in a native English speaking country (e.g. The UK, Australia, New Zealand, and parts of Canada).

The Department will grant an automatic TOEFL waiver to any student whose first language is English, any student who has been studying or working in the US for two or more years, or whose undergraduate institution uses English as the language of instruction. The ETS code for sending TOEFL scores to MIT is 3514, and the code for the EECS Department is 66 (or 78).

If you have received the type of state or federal assistance on the REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF EXAMINATION FEE form within the past 12 months, you may apply for a fee waiver. To have your fee waived, complete the form and submit it with your application. You must include appropriate supporting documentation verifying your eligibility under the program (s) you have checked on the form. These forms are available at many local City and Town Halls and at the human resources department.

In general an SAT verbal score of 450 or better waives the requirements, but each institution's requirement varies.

International students whose native language is English, or who have attended a school where the medium of instruction is English, may have the TOEFL requirement waived. The waiver is determined on an individual basis following a review of the student’s application.

International students can waive the TOEFL or TOEFLC only if their first language of instruction at the institution in which they received their degree was in English. Or if the official language of the country in which they reside is English. The TOEFL or TOEFLC cannot be waived under any other circumstance.

No, the GMAT is required in all cases. The Penn State Smeal MBA program is a part of the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), the industry group who administers the GMAT and monitors consistency among MBA program requirements.

Yes. If you elected an option, upon your reinstatement your selection will become a pre-retirement election of an option. This means that if you die while an active member, your wishes for an ongoing allowance for your survivor will be carried out. Alternatively, you may choose to cancel the option following reinstatement or elect a different option after one calendar year has elapsed following your reinstatement and before your subsequent retirement.

This varies by department. We suggest you check with your proposed academic department to determine their specific TOEFL requirements. The TOEFL exam requirement can only be waived by the Graduate School, upon recommendation by the academic department or documentation submitted by the applicant.

If you have earned a U.S. Bachelor's or Master's degree, you do not have to submit a TOEFL or IELTS score. Students who demonstrate exceptional English language ability may petition the Division of Graduate Studies to waive this requirement. To be considered, a petition must have support from your prospective department/major and must demonstrate English language proficiency. Supporting documentation of your English language ability must be submitted with the petition.
