Prospective International Students

Read the online materials carefully before submitting your application. After you apply, we will e-mail you frequently about the status of your application and request any necessary documents.

When emailing the office, please address your question to one person only. Sending the same email to several staff members decreases our ability to respond to your questions in a timely manner.
