Section 106-160-180. Admission requirements—International students.

Central Washington University welcomes qualified students form other countries. Students demonstrating the greatest potential for success may be admitted after a thorough review and evaluation of their entire academic background.

Because educational systems vary widely around the world, there is no single uniform admission requirement for international students. However, they must meet the following basic minimum requirements:

(1) Completion of academic course work and national examinations necessary to satisfy admission requirements to colleges and universities in their native country.

(2) Adequate financial support verified by a Confidential Financial Statement Form and a current bank letter or scholarship award from a United States bank or agency.

(3) Competency in English demonstrated by a score of 525 or above on the paper-based Test of English As A Foreign Language (TOEFL) or a score of 195 or above on the computer-based TOEFL, or a score of 71 or above on the internet-based TOEFL, or a 3.0 (B grade) in each of two college level English composition courses from an accredited United States college or university which would meet the general education writing requirement at Central Washington University.

(4) International students transferring from United States institutions must have a minimum grade point average of 2.50 in transferable courses, and must also meet the academic requirements for college entrance in their native country.
