TOEFL The departmental policy is to require TOEFL scores from any applicant whose primary language is not English, unless that student has received a degree within the past two years from an accredited institution where the language of instruction is English. The TOEFL scores can be no older than two years. GRE The GRE is required of all applicants. The average GRE score for incoming MPA students for fall 2013 was approximately 310; however, the GRE score is only one of several factors considered for admissions.
