I updated the TOEFL and Duolingo English Test score requirements tracker for September. Only Columbia University revised its DET requirements based on the new score conversion charts provided by Duolingo. They now require a DET score of 135, which is the highest I have ever seen. This should come as no surprise to readers, as Columbia takes its English language testing more serious than most universities. Even after achieving 135 on the DET, most students will be required to take the in-house ALP Essay Exam, which is a grueling 105-minute affair. Good for Columbia for having standards.
The chart is below (mobile users should tap and scroll horizontally).
