  • Duolingo English Test scores: Students who submit Duolingo English Test scores may be admitted with a score of 60 or higher. After arriving on campus, students will take an English placement test to determine their appropriate English course placement, which may include ESL support classes or regular university classes. TOEFL or IELTS is recommended for more accurate placement before arrival. 

When an applicant meets all admission and financial requirements, the University may issue a Form I-20 for degree-seeking F-1 student status.
