Thomas More University: international tuition 42,600 USD per year, one-year total cost 60,497 USD, acceptance rate 90.4%. Published minimum English scores: IELTS 6, TOEFL iBT 70, Duolingo 105.
Getting in. The school admits 90.4% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 510–610, Math 520–620, ACT 21–27. 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+, TOEFL iBT 70+ or Duolingo 105+.
Cost for a year. One year comes to 60,497 USD, before any scholarship. 6 scholarships come with an amount, but none says international students can apply, so nothing is taken off yet.
Deadline and visa. The application deadline for fall is 1/5. You apply through Thomas More Application. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
