Here's the government's PTE position for the United States, and how to confirm your profession's English requirement.

Civil Engineer registration in the United States

We don't yet publish a verified PTE figure for civil engineer registration in the United States. The body that regulates the profession there sets its own requirements — which may not involve PTE at all — so confirm directly before you book a test, and see the government's wider PTE position below.

PTE for US visas

PTE Academic is accepted by more than 1,000 US universities for admission (commonly around 50–60 for undergraduate and 55–70+ for graduate programs). Important: the US government does not use PTE as a visa English test — the F1 student visa is not gated on a PTE score; what matters is being admitted by a university. The US also has no points-based skilled-migration English test.
