Getting in. The school admits 85.2% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 570–678, Math 590–738, ACT 26–30. 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 79+ or Duolingo 115+. If the English score is not there yet, the school can still admit conditionally.

Cost for a year. One year comes to about 65,022 USD, before any scholarship. There are 2 scholarships, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.

Deadline and visa. The application deadline is 1/11. You apply through Common Application. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
