International Students

International students must present the following credentials along with the completed application:
  • Official transcripts of all secondary and post-secondary work completed. Each transcript should identify the institution attended and show dates of attendance, examinations passed, marks given (official), and the degree awarded.
  • Official Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT) scores (Code No. 2516 for SAT and No. 2570 for ACT). If the language of instruction is not in English, the applicant should also submit scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
  • Documentation of financial resources sufficient to meet all educational and living expenses while in the United States.

In addition to the application for admission, international students must also obtain the I-20 Certificate of Financial Eligibility form from the Office of International Students.

For specific information about student visas or any other topic of importance to international students, please call our International Student Advisor at (201) 200-2089 or email him at ttorre@njcu.edu.

CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS IN AMERICAN ENGLISH AND CULTURE
Two related but independent certificates, one in "American English" and one in "The Language and Culture of the USA", are offered for advanced students of the English language who are not matriculated at the University. Each certificate consists of approximately three credits in the Program in English as a Second Language (ESL), and 15 credits in regular (Non-ESL) courses. These concentrate on different aspects of life in the United States such as art, history, sociology, literature, politics, and music. ESL courses focus on writing, language-learning materials, accent reduction, and American legends and mythology. A TOEFL score of 500 and completion of secondary school are the main requirements. At least one 14-week semester is required for each certificate. The University can issue Student Visas. This program provides a broad range of sophisticated instruction useful to individuals born in the USA or abroad and working in fields such as business, profession of international affairs, and the arts. Please contact Dr. Marian Leonor at (201) 200-2174 for an application and further information.
