Missouri State Admissions for International Students
Northwest Missouri State
University is happy to say that it has students from all over the world
attending here. With over 22 different countries represented, Northwest has
made its place in the World today!
But before deciding to
attend Northwest, the international student should examine his or her
financial situation very carefully.
Financial section
The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service requires Northwest to
certify that international students have been accepted for full-time
enrollment and have sufficient funds to meet all expenses: tuition, housing,
transportation, etc.
Northwest requires a
Statement of Support and bank statement from the student's family, sponsor,
or government. The statement certifies that funds for tuition, room and board,
as well as personal funds are available, and that the student is permitted to
export and exchange those funds into the U.S. No I-20 form can be issued
without this certification.
Students entering
Northwest are required to have a reading, writing, and conversational
knowledge of the English language. If the student's native language is not
English, then he or she is required to meet the Test of English as a Foreign
Language (TOEFL®) minimum score of 500 on the paper-based test for
undergraduate or 550 for graduate admission.
