International Students

International students and those for whom English is not their native language are required to demonstrate proficiency in English and satisfy the regular admissions requirements and procedures. The English language requirement of the College will be met when the applicant has submitted proof of a score of 550 or better on the paper-based TOEFL, or a 79 on the TOEFL iBT. Students who score 70-78 iBT or PBT 500-549 can appeal to the Academic Director of University Pathways who will decide to either directly admit them into Greenville College’s degree programs or conditionally admit the student to Greenville College and the University Pathways program. Students scoring below a 70 on the iBT or a 500 on the PBT must enroll in University Pathways at Greenville College until proficiency is determined by the Director or a retake of the TOEFL shows minimum standards have been met. Students who successfully complete University Pathways at Greenville College curriculum will have demonstrated proficiency in English. Complete set of educational credentials with English translations, if necessary, is required before eligibility for admission can be determined. An affidavit of financial responsibility is required before the Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student Status - for Academic and Language Students (I-20 form) is issued.
