The admissions process at Stevens seeks to ensure that you have an accurate picture of the opportunities and challenges offered by a Stevens education, while also giving the Admissions committee enough information to assess your potential for success.

Application

Fill out and send us your completed Stevens application along with a $55 fee. You may also apply online and we'll waive the $55 fee. All international students from non-English speaking countries must send information that has been officially translated into English.

• Optional Essay:
  A personal statement is optional and may be included with your application, along with any other materials that you believe support your candidacy, such as special projects, research papers, honors and awards, and creative writing.

College Entrance Examinations

Take the SAT I or ACT and submit your scores to us as early as the end of your junior year. Students from non-English speaking countries who score below 550 on the verbal section of the SAT I, must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). For the Paper Based Test (PBT), the minimum TOEFL score accepted is 550. On the Internet Based Test (IBT), the minimum TOEFL score is 79.

Transcripts

Send us your official high school transcript(s) and/or certified copies of your test results, if applicable.

Interview

An interview is not required.

Visa Information:

Students interested in obtaining an F-1 visa must fill out the 2009-2010 financial verification form and fax the completed form back to undergraduate admissions at: 201.216.8348.

Two Letters of Recommendation

Two letters of recommendation are required and must be submitted to support your candidacy.

Financial Aid

We award a very limited number of Stevens Academic Fellowships based on merit to international students. These scholarships average $4,000 per year. There is also a loan program available from outside lenders. An American citizen or permanent resident is required to co-sign for this TERI Loan. Another financing option is Cooperative Education, a program that allows you to earn a competitive corporate salary while alternating between semesters of work and study. Thirty-five percent of our international students participate in co-op. We do not offer need-based financial aid to international applicants.
