International Graduate Admission

Deciding to invest in a graduate degree is making the decision to invest in your future. If you are considering graduate school, you should consider what university will allow you to have individualized attention from dedicated faculty who have experience inside and outside of the classroom. As an international student, you will also want to be confident that your instructors and classmates value the unique perspectives your background and culture allow you to share. We are confident that Carroll University students find all of these important criteria in each of our graduate programs.

International FAQ


How do I send in my application materials?
After you submit your application, you will have access to an application status page (insert link). On that
page you will find your checklist for your documents. Please use this checklist to upload your documents
and keep track of which documents you still need to submit.

How do I send my transcripts?
Transcripts must be sent to us directly with a completed transcript evaluation. Evaluations must be done
through a NACES member, such as WES, ECE, or SPANTRAN. The evaluation service will send Carroll
University the completed evaluation along with your transcripts. There will be a fee associated with the
evaluation and Carroll is unable to cover this fee for applicants.
We cannot accept emailed transcripts or evaluations from applicants. We are unable to waive this
requirement.

Can I request a waiver for my proof of English proficiency exam?

questions on them. Please note- not all scholarships on this list are eligible for international students.
