    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    In order for your application file to be reviewed and evaluated, all the following documents must be submitted by the appropriate international student application deadline:

    1. Submission of Financial Statement. See Financial Requirements below.
    2. Completed Application for Undergraduate Admissions and the $50 (U.S. dollars) non-refundable application fee. The application for undergraduate admissions must have complete and accurate responses to every item. As regard to the application fee, please keep in mind we cannot accept Eurocheques and checks from banks that do not have agreements with U.S. banks.
    3. Official records of your courses and grades from all secondary schools and universities you have attended. These records must be notarized. Certified non-English transcripts or grade reports should be accompanies by official (literal, not interpretive) translations.
    4. Course-By-Course Credential Evaluations for Transfer Credit. To be considered for undergraduate admission to Winston-Salem State University, students who have attended post-secondary educational institutions, colleges, or universities outside the United States are required to submit a professional credential evaluation of all completed coursework. This is typically referred to as a course-by-course report. A course-by-course report should be sent directly to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions from the credential evaluation service. An admission decision will be made once the official evaluation is on file and all other required materials are received. If you are currently enrolled in a term or semester, you should contact the evaluation service about getting a partial evaluation done. A final evaluation will be required prior to enrollment. We will consider an evaluation from a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). Upon receipt of the evaluation, Winston-Salem State University will determine if you qualify for undergraduate admission and whether or not your credits are transferable to the University. Obtaining an external evaluation does not ensure the awarding of credit. Transfer credit will be granted on an individual basis in keeping with Winston-Salem State University policy.

    As part of the UNC system, WSSU requires that applicants successfully complete these courses:

    • Four units of English
    • Four units of Math (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and an Advanced Math)
    • Three units of Science (Biological Science, Physical Science, and a Science with a Lab)

    • Two units of Foreign Language (same)

    English Program Requirements

    Classes at Winston-Salem State University are conducted in English, and your assignments, papers, and tests must be written in acceptable English. Since the University does not offer English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) courses for non-native speakers, you must be able to speak and write fluently. International students must be proficient in the English language and good students in their own countries before they can study here. Students should study about twelve years in schools in their own countries, beginning at about age six. The last four or five years should include study of English, history, mathematics, and science. In the American system this means graduation from high school with a diploma. In the British system this means completion of Form V before applying, and, if possible, completion of Form VI before entering the University. In the French system this means completing the baccalaureate. Students are usually between 18 and 20 years of age when they enter WSSU as undergraduates.

    If English is not your native language, even if English is the medium of instruction in your home country, you are required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), or International English Language Testing System (ILETS) which are administered at many sites worldwide. Your score on this test must be forwarded to Admissions by the testing service.

    If registration forms for the TOEFL examination are not available at your present school, contact

    TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language)
    WSSU is an official site for the TOEFL exam. If you would like to register to take the exam with us please make sure you choose Winston-Salem State University as your test center when you register via the web. Dates for local testing are posted via the register via the web link below.
