Admission requirements for international students

Most U.S. colleges require:

• A high school diploma or its equivalent
• English language proficiency

If you earned your diploma outside the U.S., many colleges and licensing agencies will ask for a credential check. You will also need proper documents to enter and stay in the U.S.
