International Admissions
Who Can Study at UAH?
At the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), an international applicant is defined as anyone who does not have U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Residency and is not a refugee in the USA. Any applicant, whether U.S. resident or resident of a foreign country, whose native language is not English will be required to meet the English proficiency requirement to be considered for admission. Graduates from an accredited university in the USA with a bachelor’s degree or higher are waived from the English proficiency requirement. Applicants unsure about what documents to submit to be considered for admission should refer to the Admission Guide. Prospective applicants can also refer to the Undergraduate International Checklist to obtain more details about the documents our office must review in order to determine whether an applicant meets our admission standards.
Undergraduate admission requirements may not be the final step in gaining admission to the desired College or academic program of your choice. Further information on the additional requirements can be found in the university catalog. It is likely that the educational system in the United States will vary greatly from that of your home country. In addition to courses in your chosen major area, the U.S. university educational system requires completion of "core curriculum" courses. The core curriculum may include university level courses in math, English/humanities, science, and social science.
