Dear Madhuri, TOEFL is only a test that tests your English Proficiency to study or work in a Native English speaking country. You need to select a University of your choice, check if you fulfil their eligibility criteria and then start off with an application form. Your TOEFL score will also play a role in the kind of Institution you can get into. Because low TOEFL score cannot get you into a good University.
