For International Students Only

For international undergraduate and Pathway Program admission, YSU requires an official credential evaluation for all schools.

What does a student need to do to gain full admission to YSU?

  • If you attended a U.S. college or university, official documents must be submitted for admission purposes.  Copies will not be accepted.

  • Mail-in Address (US Transcripts only (IF NOT ORDERED VIA PARCHMENT OR NATIONAL CLEARINGHOUSE):
    • Office of International Admissions

      Youngstown State University

      Jones Hall 1042

      1 Tressel Way,

      Youngstown, OH 44555, USA

  • If you attended a foreign high school, college or university, we require an International transcript evaluation for you.  In choosing an evaluation agency, it must be one that is accepted by this university.  The evaluation must be a course-by-course evaluation with a copy of the transcripts that were evaluated attached to the report, and must come from a NACES approved company.  If you use a WES evaluation, that is considered an ICAP evaluation.  Validential Evaluations and Foreign Consultants,inc., are among the list that are not accepted by this university because they do not meet the requirements set forth above. 
  • You can order your report at a reduced rate via WES or IEE
  • Request the test center to send the official Language Test Report directly to YSU Office of International Admissions (code: 1975) (if English Proficiency is not waived)
