ASU has been named the No. 1 school in the U.S. for innovation for nine consecutive years, ahead of Stanford and MIT, according to U.S. News & World Report.

• Can I be admitted as an international student if I’m not yet proficient in English?

  

  ASU may offer conditional admission to international applicants who meet the academic (aptitude) requirements but who are not proficient in English. Conditional admission gives international F-1 students three semesters to submit a passing TOEFL, IELTS or PTE score, or to successfully graduate from ASU Global Launch to be fully admitted to the university.

• How are pass/fail courses being accepted?

  

  If the transcript key or the institution provides information that indicates a Pass grade is comparable to a C- or higher, the course will be counted as transferable but will not be calculated in the student’s transfer GPA for admission. A Fail grade will be counted as an “F” and calculated in the student’s GPA accordingly.
