    International students whose first language is not English are required by Northern Illinois University (NIU) to demonstrate their English competency. Tests like the Duolingo English Test, IELTS, and TOEFL are acceptable. IELTS demands a minimum score of 6.0, whereas the TOEFL iBT requires a minimum of 71 for undergraduate programs. Higher scores are usually required for graduate programs, depending on the program. Students who complete the academic requirements but require further English language instruction through their English Language Institute may be eligible for conditional admission to NIU.
