Penn State requires official secondary school records for all international students, as well as official post-secondary records for attempted college/university coursework (if applicable). In reviewing an application, we look for students who have successfully completed courses or examinations in the core subjects of mathematics, physical science, social science, and language in all years of high school. Students who have not successfully completed these courses may not be eligible for admission to Penn State. Penn State requires first-year international students to submit an official score from the SAT or ACT examination. Please note: The writing component of standardized tests (SAT or ACT) is not required. The writing component will not be used as part of our evaluation.
