International Transfer Applicants
An international transfer student is anyone who is neither a citizen nor a permanent resident of the United States and who wishes to enroll in an undergraduate degree program at William & Mary and has attended another college or university after graduating from high school. If you have already earned a Baccalaureate degree (or equivalent degree) in the United States or outside of the United States, you cannot earn a second undergraduate degree from the College of William & Mary.
We welcome applications from international transfer students who attend colleges or universities in the United States for both the fall and the spring semesters. The deadline for the fall semester is March 1, and the deadline for spring applications is November 1.
Applications from international students attending schools outside of the United States who need an F-1 visa are accepted only for the fall semester so as to allow these students the full benefit of the fall new student orientation program. Also, the processing of forms needed for the immigration visa and the delivery of these forms to the student necessitate a longer time period than exists for spring transfer applicants.
If you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident and your native language is not English, you are required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). The Committee on Admission is looking for the following scores:
100 and above -- Internet-based TOEFL
250 and above -- Computer-based TOEFL
600 and above -- Paper-based TOEFL.
