Carlow University: international tuition 37,008 USD per year, one-year total cost 57,522 USD, acceptance rate 87%. Published minimum English scores: IELTS 6.5, TOEFL iBT 90, Duolingo 120.
Getting in. The school admits 87% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 500–598, Math 460–570. 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 90+ or Duolingo 120+.
Cost for a year. One year comes to 57,522 USD, before any scholarship. 6 scholarships come with an amount, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.
Deadline and visa. The application deadline is 1/12. You apply through Common App. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
