Monmouth College: international tuition 46,920 USD per year, one-year total cost ≈ 57,157 USD, acceptance rate 90.9%. Merit scholarships are open to international students. Published minimum English scores: IELTS 6.5, TOEFL iBT 79, Duolingo 100.

International first-year students are considered for merit scholarships at admission, about $20,000-$30,000 per year. The pages say nothing on need-based aid, need-blind admission or CSS Profile for international students.

Getting in. The school admits 90.9% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 500–620, Math 500–590, ACT 20–27. 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 100+.

Cost for a year. One year comes to about 57,157 USD, before any scholarship. 1 scholarship is confirmed for international students, but nothing is taken off yet because the amount of each one is not clear.

Deadline and visa. The application deadline is 1/6. You apply through Common Application. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.

Scholarships and aid for international students

Unclear
  • Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearThe Scholarships page says all applicants are automatically considered for Dean's Scholarships, but it does not name international students; the international page only says merit is awarded at admission. Not enough for Yes.
  • Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearNo page says whether admission ignores international students' ability to pay (need-blind), so it is unclear.
  • Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearThe pages do not mention the CSS Profile or a separate aid form for international students; the only form is a finance certification for the I-20, which is not an aid application.
