What are the requirements for a student from a non-English-speaking institution?
Non-native speakers of English must demonstrate that their command of the English language is adequate to engage in graduate coursework. Students who have degrees from non-English speaking institutions will be required to submit an official transcript evaluated by an evaluation service like Educational Credential Evaluators www.ece.org. In addition to the evaluation, you must present your original diploma and transcripts accompanied by a certified translation. Please note that an evaluation is different than a certified translation. You must present all documents in person at NIU so that your degrees may be attested by a designated NIU staff member. Demonstration of command of the language can be provided by submitting TOEFL exam scores. The TOEFL exam is offered by the Educational Testing Service as a paper-based, computer-based, or internet-based exam depending on availability in your area. Use the institution code 1559 to ensure that your test is sent to NIU, and use ETS resources t
