Assumption University: international tuition 54,070 USD per year, one-year total cost 57,050 USD, acceptance rate 83%. Published minimum English scores: IELTS 6.5, TOEFL iBT 80, Duolingo 105.

Getting in. The school admits 83% of applicants. The SAT range of admitted students is not published. The SAT and ACT are optional: a score counts if you send one, and you can still apply without it. For English, the school asks for IELTS 6.5+, TOEFL iBT 80+ or Duolingo 105+.

Cost for a year. One year comes to 57,050 USD, before any scholarship. 7 scholarships come with an amount, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.

Deadline and visa. The application deadline for fall is 1/11. You apply through Common Application. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
