TOEFL test dates in Nigeria.
How often the TOEFL runs in Nigeria
There are 25+ TOEFL iBT dates across 2026, with sittings roughly every two weeks from the start of the year. That steady rhythm means you can almost always find a TOEFL date in Nigeria that lands comfortably before your university or scholarship deadline.
TOEFL test cities and centres
Sittings run in Lagos, Abuja, Owerri, Asaba, Enugu, Jos and Port Harcourt, and Mafit’s flagship centres are in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. Live online classes reach every other state and the FCT, so you register and prepare wherever you are in Nigeria.
Choosing the right TOEFL date
The safe move is to book your TOEFL date six to eight weeks before your deadline, leaving room to prepare and, if ever needed, resit. Popular dates fill first, so the earlier you lock a seat, the more choice of centre and time you keep.
Registration deadlines and rescheduling
ETS sets registration cut-offs before each date and charges extra for late booking or rescheduling. Registering early through Mafit avoids the late surcharge, and a counsellor flags the deadlines for your chosen date so nothing catches you out.
Computer-based, every fortnight
Every Nigerian TOEFL sitting is the computer-based iBT, the same shortened test that now runs in under two hours. Because dates come round about every two weeks, a missed deadline is rarely fatal, though prime months near intake deadlines still book up fast.
