criteria for adMiSSion

freShMan adMiSSion criteria

Admission as a freshman is based on factors that emphasize academic performance in high school, strength and quality of curriculum,

recent trends in academic performance, class rank, and results of the ACT or SAT. Nonacademic factors such as leadership qualities,

exceptional talents, conduct, and citizenship record may be considered in an admission decision. MSU strongly encourages a college

preparatory curriculum. Visit www.admissions.msu.edu for details.

college achieveMent adMiSSionS prograM (caap)

CAAP is an alternative admission process for incoming freshman students who have academic potential, but because of economic,

cultural, or educational backgrounds or environments would be unable to realize that potential without special supportive services. Ask

your high school counselor about CAAP or visit www.admissions.msu.edu for more information.

tranSfer adMiSSion criteria

Admission as a transfer student is based on consistent academic performance including all grades, courses, and attempts at all

previously attended institutions. Applicants with a GPA below 2.0 are not admissible. Consideration for admission is stronger for

applicants with a 3.0 GPA or higher and completion of one year of English composition and a math course equivalent to intermediate

algebra (college algebra preferred) or higher. Admission consideration is stronger if you have completed 28 or more credits. Students

with 42 or more credits completed must select a major; the options of no preference, predental, premedical, prenursing, preoptometry,

and preveterinary cannot be chosen. Certain majors have additional admission requirements. Visit www.admissions.msu.edu for details.

international adMiSSion criteria

Admission to Michigan State University as an international student is based upon the same criteria as domestic students. (Refer to

the freshman and transfer admission criteria above for details.) Students admitted with regular admission must demonstrate English

language proficiency as follows: a minimum computer-based TOEFL score of 213 with no subscore below 19; For the new Internet-

based TOEFL (IBT), a score of 79 with no subscore below 17 is needed; a minimum ELPT average score of 80 with no subscore

below 80; a minimum SAT verbal score of 480; or a minimum MELAB average score of 83 with no subscore below 80. Students with

acceptable academic credentials but not meeting language proficiency requirements may be admitted on provisional status. Provisional

status is granted if the student has a computer-based TOEFL score between 133 and 213 or a ELPT average score between 60 and 80.

Provisional status will continue until minimum language proficiency (regular admission proficiency) is attained; however, the language

deficiency must be corrected within one calendar year in order to remain enrolled. Provisionally admitted students are required to take

an English language exam upon arrival to determine if additional language course work is required.

Admitted international students receive the I-20 form with the official letter of admission. All international students are required to

present the I-20 form when applying for an F-1 Student Visa and again at the port of entry into the United States. Students applying for

a J-1 Exchange Visitor Visa will need to present a DS-2019 form. This form is available from the organization/program sponsoring the

student or from the Office for International Students and Scholars at MSU. Applicants enrolled at another U.S. institution with an F-1

Student Visa must be released from SEVIS by their current institution before MSU can issue a new I-20 form.
