International applicants to undergraduate programs should contact the Admissions Office for an International Student Application. It is strongly recommended that the prospective student requests this preliminary application a year before the term in which they wishes to enter. In addition to the application, an application fee of $100 must be submitted. Criteria for automatic admission of international applicants include the following:

• TOFEL score of 535 (paper version), 203 (computer version), or 75 (Internet-based version) for students whose language of instruction is not English;
• Minimum composite score of 20 on their ACT and a minimum English subscore of 18;
• Minimum composite score of 1030 on the SAT and a minimum of 450 on the English portion;
• A cumulative GPA of 2.50 or the equivalent of C+;
• Certified copies of "O" and/or "A" National Level Examination certification (if applicable).

International applicants must also submit a certified affidavit of financial support to the Admissions Office. Additionally, any documents in a foreign language must be evaluated by an approved credential evaluating service and furnished to Spalding University at the applicant's expense. A certified copy of those documents sent directly from another institution is acceptable.

Upon admission to the University and receipt of the $400 enrollment deposit, Spalding University will issue the student an I-20 immigration form.
