Students from other nations should contact the
Office of
International Student Services well in advance of the time
they wish to enter the university. Deadlines for applications
from international students vary, so at least six months should
be allowed between the application date and the start of the
term in which they want to begin their studies.
Students must complete an International Application for Admission,
pay the application fee, and supply copies of official transcripts
of their academic work and certified English translations of them.
Academic records include a student's secondary school marks, the
result of any national school leaving examination or certificate,
and records from each college or university attended outside the
United States.
Students transferring from another institution in the U.S. are
required to submit official transcripts from each college or
university they have attended previously.
Financial responsibility must be attested to in accordance with
current cost estimates available from the Office of International
Student Services.
English proficiency is not used in determining the admissibility
of students to the university. Proficiency is required, however,
before a student will be allowed to enroll in academic courses.
