Test of English as a Foreign Language
- Students who have a TOEFL score of 500-525
or 173-195 (computer based) or its equivalent may be granted admission
for degree studies, but must first enroll in an upper-level intensive
English program. Only under special circumstances, and with the
requirement of additional intensive English language studies, will
students be admitted with less than a 500 or 173 (computer based) on
the TOEFL or its equivalent.
- Students who have a TOEFL score of 525-550
or 195-213 (computer based) or its equivalent may be granted admission
and may enroll for a combination of degree studies and certain English
language courses, depending on an evaluation by our ESL instructor
prior to registration for courses.
- Students who have a TOEFL score of 550 or
213 (computer based) (with at least 52 or 18 (computer based) in each
section of the exam) or its equivalent may be granted admission and
may be allowed to enroll for degree studies on a full-time basis.

The Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT I) or the

students. However, international students are advised to take the SAT
I or ACT, if possible, for it can often establish admissibility for an
applicant when foreign records alone do not.
