General Catalog 2025-2026

Admission of Foreign Students

Admission to undergraduate programs leading to a Bachelor’s degree requires that the applicant has completed secondary studies equivalent to the high school graduation requirements of Puerto Rico.

Foreign students may be admitted when they meet the following requirements:

  1. Submit proof of degree equivalency issued by a recognized credential evaluation agency.

These students are exempt from taking and presenting the results of admission tests of the University or of aptitude tests, such as the PAA test or the SAT. The Institution may require an admission interview or the writing of an essay.

Foreign students interested in entering the University must submit their questions to the academic unit to which they wish to be admitted.

If the applicant is admitted, the Admissions Office will complete the I-20 form of the Citizenship and Immigration Service of the United States of America so that the proceedings to obtain the student visa may be completed. Students admitted to study totally online do not have to complete this form.
