Meanwhile, the company has also announced an effective registration process for the TOEFL iBT test thereby reducing the overall time limit to three minutes.
The Education Testing Service -TOEFL, in collaboration with the National Indian Students and Alumni Union (NISAU), has introduced the ‘UK-India TOEFL Scholarship’ for Indian students based on their TOEFL scores for 10 Indian scholars.
Each selected candidate will receive a one-time scholarship of Rs 2.5 lakh, with the total scholarship amounting to Rs 25 lakh. These scholarships recognise and support applicants who wish to excel in their full-time on-campus undergraduate or postgraduate programmes at a UK university.
Additionally, the TOEFL India Championship is a national-level competition that offers a total prize money of Rs 15 lakh, providing participants a platform to demonstrate their English proficiency and academic excellence.
Meanwhile, the company has also announced an effective registration process for the TOEFL iBT test thereby reducing the overall time limit to three minutes. As mentioned in the press release, the improvement eliminates steps like selecting score recipients and additional information gathering during registration, which can now be done after the initial process, creating a smoother experience for test takers.
Now, candidates will have to undergo six steps for the registration process which include:
1. Create an account (username, email, password)
2. Choose 1 or 2 tests
3. Select test date(s) and time(s)
4. Enter personal information (name, address, phone)
5. Add or decline featured test prep
6. Review the shopping cart and pay
Sachin Jain, Country Manager, ETS India, said, “The TOEFL iBT test is accepted by over 13,000 institutions across more than 160 countries, making it a tool for students aiming to study abroad. This update to the registration process is part of our continued efforts to meet the evolving needs of our test takers. With the test now shortened and the registration process simplified into just six steps, we’re not only improving the overall customer experience but also making TOEFL more accessible”
