The 海角社区 must assess the academic preparation of foreign students. For this purpose, 鈥渇oreign students鈥� include those who hold U.S. visas as students, exchange visitors, or in other nonimmigrant classifications.
The 海角社区 uses separate requirements and application filing dates in the admission of foreign students. Verification of English proficiency (see the section on TOEFL Requirement for undergraduate applicants), financial resources, and academic performance are all important considerations for admission. Academic records from foreign institutions must be on file at least for the first term and, if not in English, must be accompanied by certified English translations.
Priority in admission is given to residents of California. There is little likelihood of nonresident applicants, including international students, being admitted either to impacted majors or to those majors or programs with limited openings.
