38 Texas Wesleyan University Conditional Admission
International Programs will conditionally admit international students after a favorable recommendation from the Committee on International Education. F-1 international students are similarly admitted provided less than full-time enrollment at Texas Wesleyan University is not a condition for admission.
International Admission Status
Each application for international admission is individually reviewed by international admission officers under the guidelines above.
Regular Academic Acceptance—Granted to applicants who meet regular international admissions criteria.
Conditional Academic Acceptance—May be granted after review by the Committee on International Education. Applicants referred to the Committee for consideration must demonstrate evidence of potential success through a review of transcripts, a personal essay, letters of recommendation, resumes, and/or test scores. The Committee will offer conditional admission to an applicant a) with a record of continuously- improving academic performance through the most recent term of enrollment, b) who presents a grade point average not meeting requirements for regular admission due to one or more terms of poor academic performance occurring more than 3 years prior to the last term of enrollment, and/or c) who, through a personal essay, letters of recommendation, resumes, and/or test scores, reflects an ability to succeed within the Texas Wesleyan University academic environment, provided the environment is substantively different than that previously available to the applicant. The Committee will furthermore offer conditional admission only to applicants not meeting minimum GPA requirements; the Committee may not conditionally admit applicants not meeting minimum English proficiency requirements who are not otherwise waived from providing proof of English proficiency. The conditions, requirements, or any limitations of acceptance are outlined in the conditional acceptance letter.
Provisional Acceptance—International students admitted based on unofficial transcripts and uncertified copies of official academic transcripts, diplomas, test scores, marks sheets, grade reports, and other credentials are admitted provisionally. Provisional applicants are regularly admitted when identical official academic documents or certified copies thereof are submitted.
Probationary Academic Status—New undergraduate students applying as international students, who are or were on probationary status at the last college/university attended, may be admitted and enroll under probationary status at Texas Wesleyan University. Refer to the section on “Academic Standards” of the Undergraduate Catalog regarding this enrollment status.
Denied—Students not offered regular or conditional admission are denied. Applicants denied may request admission counseling for a strategy to improve their overall cumulative grade point average prior to enrollment. Any student may be denied admission at the sole discretion of the University.
Appeal—An international applicant denied undergraduate admission may elect to appeal the decision to the Committee on International Education. The student should complete and submit the appeal along with updated
