International Transfer Students
What are the requirements for International transfer students?
The TOEFL requirement is based on the linguistic background of applicants, not citizenship. TOEFL is required of all applicants who have not attended an English language school for the last five years and whose primary language is not English. Applicants who score 670 or higher on the Critical Reading section of the SAT do not have to submit TOEFL scores, but are welcome to do so. Non-native English speakers attending English language schools for the last five years are not required to submit a TOEFL score but may do so to supplement their application. IELTS will be accepted from applicants who live in countries where TOEFL is not administered. A score of 7.0 or higher on each band is expected on IELTS.
All international applicants must complete the International Student Certification of Finances form. You can access the form here: http://apply.jhu.edu/pdf/2010/application_international_finances.pdf. To submit the form, download the form, print it out, complete it, and mail it to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. This form is required for an international student's transfer application and therefore must be submitted by the application deadline. Without this form, an international transfer application will be considered incomplete and we will be unable to review it for admission.
