International Admissions

International students planning to enter the Mount as a freshman or transfer student must submit the following documentation:

• Completed application for admission.
• Either SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) scores, ACT scores, TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) exam results, or the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) exam results. Mount Saint Mary College requires a minimum TOEFL score of 79 on the iBT or a IELTS overall band score of 6.0 for admission.
• Official copies of their previous secondary and post-secondary academic records. Students may be asked to have documents evaluated by a NACES member.
• At least one letter of recommendation in English. If the letter of recommendation is written in the applicant's native language, a signed copy of the translation is acceptable if included with the original letter.
• Application fee of $45, if using the paper application.

Please note that the secondary education credentials of international students seeking admission to the nursing program must be evaluated by the New York State Education Department before an admissions decision can be made.
