Welcome to Xavier University of Louisiana, International Graduate Applicants!

Students come from all over the world to attend Xavier. Part of what makes us great is the wide variety of backgrounds our students bring that contribute to the Xavier experience!

Learn more about the requirements for international applicants below.

In addition to the documents required for a specific program of interest; all College or University transcripts must be in English.  If educated in a non-English speaking college or university, a Course-by-Course evaluation of college or university work must be evaluated by a United States foreign credential evaluator from the NACES Evaluation Agency. SPANTRAN is recommended. Applicants who utilize SPANTRAN via link will receive a 10% discount on the evaluation. Please access the evaluation application via SPANTRAN here.

English language proficiency is essential for success at Xavier. Applicants who have completed all or some high school or secondary school in a country where English was not the language of instruction will be required to demonstrate English proficiency by completing the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), or the International English Language Testing Service (IELTS).

However, TOEFL and IELTS scores are not required for applicants with English as the native language.

Minimum TOEFL or IELTS scores required for non- native English speakers:

  • TOEFL: Paper – 550
  • Internet-Based – 80
  • IELTS: 7.0

 

Lastly, a Xavier University Certificate of Financial Support (a notarized form indicating who will pay the cost of attendance) is also required.
