Are TOEFL requirements waived for foreigners with US bachelors degrees?

Question

I notice that perhaps most US graduate programs require non-native English speakers to get a certain mark on the TOEFL. Is this requirement typically waived for students who completed their bachelors degree in the US before applying to a masters program in another school also in the US?

Answer 1

I think this is dependent on the University. You can usually write an email to the admission office of the school that you are applying to and inquire whether they still need a TOEFL score. Sometimes they will require a writing sample, and sometimes they can have you take an internal language test.

However, the current graduate school that I go to still required a score from either TOEFL or IELTS. Thus I took IELTS instead of TOEFL to give it a try.
