Just FYI: Dartmouth doesn't have a business major.

Also, while your ability to thrive in a school that speaks a different language (I wouldn't be able to!) is very impressive, Dartmouth IS an English-speaking school. Therefore, they need to be confident that you can handle the work (in English).

You might want to call the admissions office and ask about the advisability of taking the TOEFL, given that you have been--I assume--attending an English-speaking school for only three years.
