International students are applicants who are not United States citizens or permanent residents. They must submit the items listed below:

1. Application for Admission
2. Official transcripts from secondary schools and universities attended. Secondary transcripts must be submitted if a student has not completed a full year of postsecondary equivalency. All transcripts not written in English must be accompanied by notarized English translations. All transcripts should include the following information:
   • dates of attendance
   • courses taken and grades received
   • degree earned and date received
3. Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score report or an equivalent approved English proficiency test score. All international students must submit proof of proficiency in the English language by means of the TOEFL or previous college coursework. If the student’s native language is English, no TOEFL is required. No TOEFL is required if the student has successfully completed twelve credit hours of core curriculum courses as defined in the Avila University Catalog with a cumulative grade point average of a 2.0 and no “F” grades. The TOEFL requirement may sometimes be waived for students who have completed high school or at least one year of study at a college where all instruction was conducted in English.
4. If the TOEFL is required, students must submit an official TOEFL score report. The minimum TOEFL score for admission to an undergraduate degree program is 61 for the Internet-based TOEFL (IBT) or 500 for the Paper-based TOEFL test. The TOEFL University Code for Avila University is 6109. No TOEFL score is needed for the Intensive Language and Culture Program (ILCP).
5. All admitted international students must submit a Statement of Finance. All statements not written in English must be accompanied by notarized English translations. Proof of support may be a bank statement or other documents guaranteeing the student’s ability to meet the costs of study in the United States. If the funds belong to a parent or sponsor, the sponsor must also submit a letter of intent to sponsor the student’s tuition and living expenses.

When an accepted international student has provided a Statement of Finance, the Office of Admission will issue an I-20 for a non-immigrant student visa. Upon arrival at Avila University, all accepted international students are billed for Avila University health insurance coverage unless proof of equal to or better than the Avila University insurance is obtained.
