Important tips for your test preparation and about the TOEFL certificates
In the citycenter of Stuttgart you will find our TOEFL-Testcenters with the signature STN13751A und STN13751B. We are offering 39 places alltogether.
We have rented rooms in the Württembergische Verwaltungs- und Wirtschafts-Akademie e.V. (VWA Stuttgart) in Wolframstr. 32 in Stuttgart.
Normally we offer a waiting room. Please have a look for the room number on the monitor in the entrance area. Please wait in this room until we call you.
Between application and unlocking you for the test, the test administrator will give an explanation and there is room for questions.
There is a nice video from ETS which explains the procedure on the testing day. We are not so formal as shown in the video and we do not have observation cameras.
The TOEFL iBT has very strict security standards, which we are obliged to enforce.
In order to minimise complications on the test day, we would like to remind you of the most important regulations:
- You will have to present a valid passport with a photo, where we can recognise you
(we can accept ADDITIONALLY other kind of photo ID-cards like driving license, student card or your university credential, etc. IF the photo on your primary ID is older). The final decision is with the test administrator.
- You are not allowed to bring any electronic equipment. Mobile phones have to be switched off.
- Scratch paper and pencil will be provided by us
- There is no space for personal belongings (like rucksacks…). If they are a stumbling-block, the test administrator will tell you to store it in the waiting room or corridor. Items are left there at the owner´s own risk.
If you like to use your mandatory break of 10 minutes for a cigarette, please go outside the building.
Around the official starting date (e.g. 11:00) there is a time frame of 30 minutes. So you can start between 10:30 and 11:30 o’clock. If you are delayed (in this case 11:31) we normally don’t have the possibility to log you in. You then have to contact ETS to arrange a new testing date.
We would like to ask you to arrive 45 minutes before the official starting time. If everybody is there on time, the check-in will be finished 30 minutes before the official beginning and we can get an early start. If you come late you may hear the noise of other people taking the "speaking part" while you are still in the "listening part". We also start cleaning the test room in the presence of latecomers.
Please DON`T call us for any questions about the test. We are only responsible for offering you a secure, controlled and clean testing environment. For any questions about the test itself you should call the help desk in Amsterdam 0031-320-239 540 or send an email via the TOEFL-website. Changes and cancellations under 0800-18 39 708.
