  • Private

Waynesburg University: international tuition 30,980 USD per year, one-year total cost 46,980 USD, acceptance rate 89.8%. Merit scholarships are open to international students. Published minimum English scores: IELTS 6.5, TOEFL iBT 80.

Yes: first-year international students, including Vietnamese applicants, are explicitly eligible for academic Achievement Awards. Need-based aid, need-blind admission, and CSS Profile/international aid-form requirements remain unclear.

Getting in. The school admits 89.8% of applicants. Admitted students scored around Reading and Writing 470–630, Math 460–620, ACT 19–23. 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 80+.

Cost for a year. One year comes to 46,980 USD, before any scholarship. 10 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 1/3. You apply through International Student Application for Admission. How long the visa takes is up to the consulate; see the country note.
