international students

International students are encouraged to apply for admission as early as possible in order to have enough time to process the admissions requirements. Please note the March 1 priority scholarship deadline for the fall semester and November 1 deadline for the spring semester. The I-20 form needed to obtain a student visa will be issued once a student is accepted and the $200 tuition deposit has been received. In addition to the general admission requirements, international applicants must also show proof of english language proficiency. Unless English is a prospective student’s first language, the student must achieve a minimum score for the following tests

TOEFL Paper: 550
TOEFL Computer: 213
TOEFL iBT: 79 - 80
IELTS: 6.0

Students that fall below the minimum score are required to participate in the completion of the English and academic preparation instruction program through the Global Language Institute. A solid command of oral and written English is necessary for success in CVA’s programs. The College’s TOEFL code number is 6108.
