International Applicants
An official
TOEFL score (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is required of nonnative speakers of English. The minimum TOEFL score is 213 (computer version) and 550 (paper version). The new TOEFL Internet version minimum scores are as follows: Writing: 22, Speaking: 23, Reading: 21, and Listening: 17. The completion of a master's degree in the United States is not grounds for waiving test results.
International applicants recommended for admission by academic programs must document total financial resources before an official Certificate of Admission and Eligibility (I-20 and DS-2019) can be issued by graduate admissions. The Office of Graduate Admissions provides Certificates of Admission and Eligibility (I-20 and DS-2019) forms with their notification of admission. Admitted international students must submit a completed financial documentation form.
Any questions regarding international applicant requirements should be directed to the Office of Graduate Admissions at 732-932-7711.
