What are the minimum GRE and TOEFL score requirements?
The LSU Graduate School will accept TOEFL scores no lower than 550 (paper based test), 213 (computer based test), or 79 (Internet based test). NO EXCEPTIONS. Our department prefers scores of at least 620 (pBt), 260 (cBt), or 105 (iBt), but these scores are not required for admission as many factors are evaluated when considering admission of each applicant. The Graduate School does not have a minimum GRE score requirement. It is only required that you take the test. Our department prefers GRE scores of 1200 or higher (verbal + quantitative).
