The American Language Institute (ALI) offers two possible waivers for admission to SF State non-impacted undergraduate programs. Either waiver will meet the SF State English proficiency requirements. You do not need to complete the highest ALI level to receive either TOEFL waiver.
TOEFL Waiver One
You must be placed in and successfully complete the ALI high-intermediate level (70) and get the required score on the ALI English proficiency test, which is given twice each semester.
TOEFL Waiver Two
You must successfully complete the ALI advanced level (80). There is no English proficiency score required for Waiver Two.
