However, please note that application materials submitted within the past six weeks have likely been received and are being processed. You may contact us regarding your application status after this processing period. If you have not already done so, please submit the following application materials:
-Official and valid TOEFL iBT or academic IELTS scores. . 1point3acresOfficial TOEFL scores must be sent electronically by ETS to "U Southern Cal," ETS code 4852. A department code is not required but may be indicated if necessary. Official IELTS scores must be sent electronically by your IELTS testing center to “USC” or “University of Southern California”. Valid TOEFL and IELTS scores are dated within two years of the start of the intended application semester. The fall semester starts in August, and the spring semester starts in January.
While the TOEFL or IELTS is a required application material, there is no minimum score required for admission to the Viterbi School. Admitted international students are required to take the USC International Student English (ISE) examination upon arriving at USC. The results will determine if you will be required to take English language courses at USC. Students are exempt from taking the ISE exam if they achieve a minimum TOEFL score of 90 overall and 20 per section OR a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 overall and 6 per section. If you take the TOEFL or IELTS more than once, we will consider your best overall score.
-Sufficient financial statement of support and passport verification.
International students recommended for admission are required to submit proof of sufficient financial support and passport verification in order to be issued an I-20. While these documents are not required for your application to be reviewed, we highly recommend that you submit them as soon as possible. That way, if you are recommended for admission, we can issue your official admission package and I-20 without delay for your visa procedures..1point3acres
