TOEFL
| |
At this time the University does not admit international students for
study in the United States. Nevertheless, qualified international students can
take University online courses and complete certificate, diploma, and degree
programs while residing internationally. Proficiency in the English language (as
evidenced by satisfactory TOEFL scores), however, and satisfactory academic
records are important factors in the admission decision for all applicants
outside the United States. International students must have graduated from a
secondary school that is equivalent to secondary schools in the United States.
Specifics on each requirement are listed below:
-
Complete an online Application for Admission (including the International
Applicant Information section) and submit
it electronically to the Admissions Office. In addition you must submit all required documentation.
-
Certified official high school
(including a secondary school that is equivalent to high schools in the United
States), college, and university transcript(s) from all previous academic experiences are required of all
degree and diploma seeking students. If the original copy of this record is written in a language other
than English, then a certified copy of an English translation and evaluation
is required. The official transcript must indicate the courses completed, the
highest level completed, and the date coursework was completed. The University
does not provide translation services for international transcripts;
therefore, applicants may contact World Education Services (International
Academic Credential Evaluation) at www.wes.org for translation
information.
-
The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is
required of all international applicants, except those from countries where English is the
only official language, the applicant is a transfer from an accredited
American Institution with English transfer credit, or the applicant is a
graduate of an English-speaking school at the secondary level. See
TOEFL.
-
All international applicants must take the ACCUPLACER
prior to registering for classes. If the applicant already lives in the United
States, a minimum score of 51.1 on the reading and 52.1 on the sentence skills
parts of the ACCUPLACER may be substituted for the TOEFL requirement. The test
may not be required if the applicant has acceptable transfer credit in
mathematics/algebra and English from a regionally accredited college or
university. See ACCUPLACER.
-
Follow the additional procedures
set forth in Making Application.
