For Applicants Whose First Language Is Not English

1. International applicants whose first language is not English will be required to submit TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) scores.
2. Applicants whose first language is not English and who graduated from a U.S. high school (or GED) and whose SAT Verbal score is below 430 or ACT English score is below 17 must take the TOEFL or SAT II: ELPT (English Language Proficiency Test).

Those applicants who score 525 (550 for Clinical Nursing applicants) or above on TOEFL or 972 or above on ELPT may enroll in the regular college program. Those applicants who score below these minimum scores will be required to enroll in the English Language Institute (ELI) and will not be allowed to enroll in the regular college program until the above requirements are met or recommended by English Language Institute faculty .
