Degree Requirements for International Students

For students holding undergraduate degrees from non-U.S. institutions, we require submission of a professional credential evaluation report. The purpose of this evaluation is to assist our admissions committee in accurately understanding and interpreting a student’s academic credentials. Four-year undergraduate degrees are required.

Students with undergraduate degrees from institutions outside the U.S. must have their transcripts and degree documents evaluated by a professional service. The evaluation report will provide us with the following information:

• A list of all subjects completed at the post-secondary level
• A U.S. semester credit and grade equivalent for each course
• A U.S. grade point average (GPA) on a 4.0 scale (the GPA area on the application can be left blank)

Applicants can obtain an evaluation report in one of two ways:

• Visit TEC Application – TAMU Mays Business School to order a course-by-course evaluation
• Visit the WES Website to order a BASIC course-by-course evaluation

Transcript reviews take a minimum of 7-10 business days.

An application for admission is not complete until we receive the electronic transcript evaluation from WES or TEC. The report must be available to us electronically by the application deadline of February 28. No exceptions will be made. You may track the progress of your evaluation via the WES or TEC website.

International students are required to display English language proficiency during the application process. This can be accomplished by submitting unofficial test scores* (exam date within two years of the date of application) in one of the following ways:

• TOEFL iBT score of ≥ 100
• TOEFL Essentials score of ≥ 10
• IELTS score of ≥ 7

This requirement can be waived by meeting one of the following criteria:

• GRE verbal score ≥ 146
• GMAT verbal score ≥ 77
• Receiving a baccalaureate degree with all four years of attendance at a U.S. college or university
• Citizenship of one of the countries listed

*If admitted, official test scores must be submitted.
