International students whose native language is not English and who have spent less than two of the last three years in an English-speaking country are required to submit scores from an internationally accepted standardized examination before a decision is made on admission.
To complete their credential file, applicants are required to furnish original and official transcripts the year prior to admission from each school and college attended both in the U.S. and abroad. All international transcripts must be evaluated by The Educational Credentials Evaluators, Inc. or the World Education Services and these evaluations should be sent directly to UMSL Global. International transcripts should not be sent to OptomCAS.
