Admission of International Students

Dakota College is authorized to accept international students. There is specific documentation that international students must provide to be considered for acceptance. International transcripts and credentials need to be evaluated before they are used for admission purposes. Such an evaluation is the sole responsibility of the applicant, and it must be performed by the Foreign Credentials Service of America (FCSA), a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES), or the Association of International Credential Evaluators (AICE). All documentation must be translated into English and be received by the admissions office. 

Admission requirements are to be met by the published deadlines for non-Canadian international students. Students whose admission requirements are not fully satisfied will not be issued an I-20 immigration form or be able to register until all admission requirements are met. 

Fall Semester Deadline: July 15th (recommended to apply by June 1st) 
Spring Semester Deadline: December 15th (recommended to apply by Nov 1st)
