International Students

Admissions Requirements

Sullivan University encourages international understanding through inter cultural exchange derived from the admission of qualified international students from countries throughout the world. The University's academic requirements for admission as described in other sections must be met. All necessary documents including academic records, financial certificate and proof of English language proficiency must be received before permission to enroll and before the I-20 Form can be issued. Applicants are required to provide official or certified copies of academic records. Records in languages other than English must be accompanied by a certified English translation.

Financial ability must be demonstrated by completion of a financial certificate, including signatures of the sponsor and a bank official. Persons receiving a scholarship may demonstrate financial ability by sending an original or certified copy of the award letter, including the amount of the scholarship or the expenses it covers. The University may require an advance deposit of funds to cover one year's tuition and living expenses for all non-immigrant international students from a particular country before issuance of the I-20 Form.

All applicants from non-English speaking countries are required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), offered by the Educational Testing Service. It is the applicant's responsibility to obtain the necessary information and application forms, and to take the test by a date that assures the results are reported to the University by the required deadlines. A score of 500 on the written test and 197 on the computer test is required for admission to associate and baccalaureate programs.

Applications received from international students will be reviewed on a competitive basis. Fulfillment of the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to the University. An effort will be made to admit students from a variety of countries.
