Dear Prospective Student:

I am excited to report that Northwestern has implemented a $3,000 out-of-state tuition waiver for freshman/transfer students during their first year.  Also, a non-resident tuition waiver based on GPA will take effect the second year.  With scholarships and tuition waivers, most international students here at Northwestern pay less than $6,000 a semester for tuition and fees.  Northwestern has always strived to provide low tuition rates to international students.  Whether you call it affordable, cheap, or low cost, Northwestern is the place to be if you are interested in conserving money.

The ability to understand, speak, read and write English effectively is most important for any student wishing to study at Northwestern Oklahoma State University, because all lectures and examinations are conducted in English.  An OFFICIAL TOEFL score of 500 and above (paper based), 173 and above (computer based) or 61 (internet based), or, IELTS score of 6.0 (or higher) must be submitted as a portion of your application.  If you have not taken the TOEFL or IELTS exam, please list the date you plan to take it.  Northwestern does not admit students without meeting the English proficiency requirement.

Northwestern must have a completed application form, high school transcript in English, financial guarantee, statement of understanding, and an OFFICIAL TOEFL or IELTS score to complete the admission process.  After being accepted to Northwestern, international students must have a $6,000.00 deposit in Northwestern's bank account for proof of financial ability to pay for the first semester's expenses.  When these requirements have been met, Northwestern will send an I-20 for travel arrangements.

As an International student at NWOSU, you are required to have a TB skin test at the Woods County Health Department at no cost to the student.  The completion of this test is necessary for enrollment.

In mailing your application, write your return address on the outside of the envelope.  If possible, type all returns in English, as this will speed up your admissions process.

Again, thank you for your interest in NWOSU.  Northwestern is a great place to get a quality and affordable education.  We hope you choose our University to further your education.
