Process section of the current catalog. The Office of Admissions does not

International Applicants: Chicago Campus
International applicants must submit a completed application as outlined
above. In addition, any applicant whose first language is not English must
submit scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). Scores
should be sent directly to the School by the testing service. The Adler School’s
code number for receiving test scores is 1147. Applicants, who have taken the
paper-based TOEFL, must receive a minimum score of 550. Those who take the
computer-based TOEFL must receive a minimum score of 213. Students who
take the Internet-based TOEFL must receive a minimum score of 79. Students
that have earned a Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in an accredited program in
the United States will not be required to take the TOEFL.
Applicants educated outside of the United States should contact the Office
of Admissions as early as possible to obtain additional forms that may be
required for document translation. International applicants must also submit
documentation of sufficient financial resources to complete the program and
provide for living expenses while attending the Adler School. Once enrolled in
the program, students must pay tuition and fees according to the school’s
payment schedule. Current international students will not be allowed to register
for classes if they have an outstanding balance which jeopardizes the student’s
ability to remain in the U.S. under their F-1 student visa.
Students that have been accepted into a degree program at the School will
be issued an I-20 upon receipt of their Statement of Acceptance, the
appropriate tuition deposit, and all other financial verification paperwork.
Students should allow enough time for securing an F-1 student visa in their
country for travel to the U.S. It is the student’s responsibility to provide the
Office of Admissions with a current foreign address and mailing address if
different, along with the intended U.S. address. I-20s cannot be mailed to Post
Office Box numbers.
