Getting in. The school admits 47.1% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 680–750, Math 670–750, ACT 31–34. 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+ or TOEFL iBT 90+.
Cost for a year. One year comes to about 83,856 USD, before any scholarship. There is 1 scholarship, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.
