TOEFL, GRE tests cancelled for March
All TOEFL and GRE tests in the Chinese mainland in March will be cancelled due to the ongoing novel coronavirus outbreak, test administrators said on Monday.
After consultation with National Education Examinations Authority under the Ministry of Education, ETS, administrator of the two tests, decided to further cancel all tests in March and will return fees to test takers' accounts.
Test takers originally scheduled for February and March testing will be able to register for a later date at no charge, ETS said.
"ETS continues to be in communication with colleges and universities regarding the cancelled test dates and potential impact to students, and have asked for their understanding for any delay in score submissions," it said.
ETS is currently working with NEEA to accommodate impacted test takers, including adding test dates in April and May, it said.
British Council, administrator of IELTS, announced on Friday it decided to cancel all IELTS tests in the Chinese mainland in March.
ETS and British Council announced last month they would cancel all TOEFL, GRE and IELTS tests in the Chinese mainland in February.
