TOEFL Requirement for Switzerland Universities: Minimum Score

Typical minimum: 85 to 100 iBT (CEFR C1); the University of Zurich, University of Bern and University of Lausanne's HEC faculty ask for 100, the University of Basel around 90, and Universita della Svizzera italiana and the University of Lucerne accept 85.

Confirmed on the same official language-requirement pages as the IELTS figure. As with IELTS, Switzerland has no single national minimum; each university publishes its own, so this records the typical range across the universities checked for this file rather than one official figure.
