Transcripts

In order to be eligible for Admission to GSU you must submit official transcripts that reflect the final grades you receive upon completion of high school and official transcripts from any and all colleges you have attended. If you are applying to Glenville State University before you actually graduate from high school or the college from which you are transferring, you can submit an unofficial or incomplete transcript at the time you apply. However, you will need to submit a final official transcript before you can become fully admitted to GSU.

Financial Verification

You need to submit a completed financial verification form along with an official bank statement. This bank statement can be your own, or that of the person who is financially sponsoring your education.

 

Immunizations

You must submit official documentation (in English) from a doctor proving that you have obtained Measles, Mumps & Rubella immunizations.

Official Documentation

All documents required and submitted for International Admission to Glenville State University must be official. Documents will only be deemed official, and therefore accepted, if they are printed on letterhead and maintain official appearance and original signatures, stamps and seals. Original documents are preferred, but a certified copy (certified by a Notary or other recognized official with an official seal) will be accepted. Test Scores will only be deemed official if they come to Glenville State University directly from the testing center or organization. Non-certified photocopies and faxes will not be accepted. All documents are subject to verification.

Other

Admissions requirements and verification processes are subject to change and can vary by country. All International applicants are subject to the submitting of official regional or national test results on a case by case basis and as deemed necessary by the Glenville State University Office of Admissions. Current and location-specific requirements will be presented to each applicant on an individual basis.

Students applying from Ghana, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and The Gambia must also submit official results from the West African Exam Council or the National Exam Council in addition to all other required admissions materials.
