Admission of International Students
International students applying for undergraduate admission must have their completed applications on file at least four months prior to their intended date of enrollment. Inquiries and application should be addressed to:
Director of Admissions and Recruitment
Box 80 Old Main
WVU Tech/CTC at WVU Tech
Montgomery, West Virginia 25136 USA
Students applying should have completed the equivalent of a secondary education with higher than average grades. The “Test of English as a Foreign Language” is recommended for all students with a native language other than English. A score of 500 or above on the paper-based TOEFL or 173 on the computer-based TOEFL is usually considered adequate for admission. Applications for this test should be addressed to:
TOEFL Educational Test Service Princeton, New Jersey 08540 USA
All documents received by the college in connection with such applications for admission become the property of the college. Under no circumstance will they be duplicated, returned to the applicant, or forwarded to any agency or other college or university. Admission documents of applicants who do not enroll in the college may be destroyed after one year. Because WVU Tech or the CTC at WVU Tech offer no elementary studies in English as a foreign language, only students with English proficiency are admitted. The students may be given a conditional acceptance provided they submit a TOEFL test score of at least 500. To be admitted, an international student must furnish a certificate of finance showing the ability to finance the entire cost of an education at WVU Tech. It is estimated that each student will need a minimum of $18,800 for an academic year of two semesters and at least $4,000 for the summer months of May, June, July, and August.
