DeSales University: international tuition 48,000 USD per year, one-year total cost 67,406 USD, acceptance rate 77.1%. Merit scholarships are open to international students.
DeSales says international students can qualify for merit scholarships but not federal or state aid. The pages do not clarify institutional need-based aid for international students.
Getting in. The school admits 77.1% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 550–640, Math 540–620, ACT 27–28. The SAT and ACT are optional: a score counts if you send one, and you can still apply without it. The school has not published a minimum English score.
Cost for a year. One year comes to 67,406 USD, before any scholarship. 8 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 1/4. You apply through Common Application; DeSales application. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
