Getting in. Neither the school's site nor College Scorecard gives an admit rate or the SAT range of admitted students. The school does not require the SAT or ACT. For English, the school asks for IELTS 6+, TOEFL iBT 68+ or Duolingo 95+. The school does not admit conditionally when the English score is missing.
Cost for a year. One year comes to 29,372 USD, before any scholarship. 4 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 15/6. You apply through Online Application for Admission. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.

Scholarships and aid for international students
- Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearThe scholarships page says new admitted students are automatically considered, but it does not state this applies to international students and also mentions the FAFSA, so it is unclear for Vietnamese applicants.
- Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearNo page says whether the college does or does not consider ability to pay when admitting international students; it requires proof of finances, but that is not enough to conclude.
- Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearNo page mentions a CSS Profile or a separate international aid form for scholarships; the Declaration of Financial Resources is for admission and I-20 purposes, not an aid application.
