TOEFL passing score for the CGFNS Certification Program
There are three components of the CGFNS Certification Program: a Credentials review, a one day test of nursing knowledge and the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS). You must pass all three parts of the Certification Program in order to earn the CGFNS certificate.
You must pass the CGFNS Qualifying ExamSM and TOEFL within a two year time period. TOEFL may be taken prior to or following the CGFNS Qualifying ExamSM. The TOEFL passing scores for the CGFNS Certification Program as of July 1998 are:
Computer: 207
Written: 540
You must apply directly to ETS to take the TOEFL examination. ETS will forward your TOEFL results to CGFNS upon your request. When filling out the ETS application, use the following code number when identifying score recipients: 9988. This number is extremely important since it identifies you specifically as a CGFNS candidate and insures that your ETS results will be forwarded for inclusion in your CGFNS file.
