Conditional Admission for International Students

Undergraduate
For undergraduate studies, international students need a 71 IBT TOEFL score or 6.0 IELTS score for full admission. If you do not have a TOEFL or IELTS score, you can apply for conditional admission.

To receive Conditional Undergraduate Admission, your original transcripts must show at least a 2.5 grade point average.

When you complete the UESL program’s highest level, level 5, with B (3.0) or higher in all level 5 classes, you can begin your undergraduate degree program without a TOEFL or IELTS score.

Transcripts

College or university transfer credits must be evaluated by an official US evaluation agency. You should send your sealed official transcript to an agency with the agency’s application and fee.

Here are the links to the two CWU accepted evaluation agencies:

Foundation for International Services (FIS), Inc.

World Education Services (WES)
