Country-level guidance for United States

Scores run on the 10–160 scale. US minimums range from ~90 at community colleges to 125+ at the most selective programs.

Admission is not the same as the visa

For the F-1 student visa, USCIS does not mandate a specific English test. Your university issues the I-20 on its own admission criteria — so if your university accepted your DET, you are covered. The consular officer assesses your spoken English at the interview in person.

Applying from Switzerland

At about $70 the DET is taken online from Switzerland — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS. Switzerland is German-, French- and Italian-speaking; English-taught programmes need Duolingo English Test/IELTS; students study abroad via SEMP and bilateral programmes.
