Educational Testing Service (ETS) has announced a groundbreaking partnership with Career Mosaic, a prominent student recruiter in South Asia, to facilitate the validation of TOEFL test scores for Indian students applying to universities in the United States. This collaboration aims to enhance the credibility of student profiles and streamline the admissions process for US institutions.
Through this partnership, US universities will gain access to verified TOEFL scores, relieving them of the burden of independently verifying English language proficiency. This move is expected to significantly reduce administrative hassles and ensure a smoother enrollment process for both students and universities.
The TOEFL test, administered by ETS, is widely recognized by over 12,000 institutions in more than 160 countries, including popular destinations like the US, Canada, Australia, and the UK. By validating TOEFL scores through Career Mosaic, ETS aims to reinforce the integrity of its testing process and provide universities with reliable solutions for evaluating the English language proficiency of prospective students.
Sachin Jain, Country Manager of ETS India and South Asia, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, emphasizing the commitment of both organizations to delivering efficient and trustworthy solutions to universities. This collaboration underscores ETS’s efforts to enhance the test-taking experience and ensure the validity of TOEFL scores.
Manisha Zaveri, Joint Managing Director at Career Mosaic, highlighted the significance of the partnership in bolstering the credibility of student profiles and benefiting both universities and Indian students seeking higher education opportunities in the US.
The announcement was met with enthusiasm from universities like Webster University USA, with Director of International Admissions Blerina Polovina lauding the validation of TOEFL scores as a means to streamline admissions processes and create a more seamless experience for students and institutions alike. Overall, this partnership marks a significant step forward in facilitating international student mobility and promoting academic excellence.
