Getting in. The school admits 78.8% of applicants. The SAT range of admitted students is not published. The school does not require the SAT or ACT. For English, the school asks for IELTS 6+, TOEFL iBT 79+ or Duolingo 100+.

Cost for a year. One year comes to 50,671 USD, before any scholarship. 12 scholarships come with an amount, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.

Unclear
  • Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearGeneral pages say undergraduates are automatically considered for merit upon acceptance, but they do not mention international students specifically, so Yes cannot be confirmed.
  • Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearThe pages do not say whether admission decisions for international students take ability to pay into account, so no conclusion can be drawn.
  • Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearThe aid pages only walk through the FAFSA for federally eligible students; they say nothing about the CSS Profile or a separate international aid form.
