ADMISSIONS - Getting Into the Institution

Required standardized tests for entire college:


SAT
ACT




  Interviews for entire college:
Not required

Additional application requirements for entire college:
The admissions committee recommends a TOEFL score of 90 or above on the internet-based test or 570 or above for the paper-based test. The International English Language Language Testing System (IELTS) is also acceptable. A score of 7 or higher is preferred. Although we do not require students with an SAT I Verbal score of 570 or higher to submit TOEFL test results, we STRONGLY recommend that all students whose first language is not English take this exam. Academically strong students whose TOEFL scores are slightly below Lehigh's recommended scores may be considered for admission on a conditional basis. Conditional admission entails successful completion of a seven-week intensive English as a Second Language program (Step Up).
