COVID 19 Information for International Applicants

The University of San Francisco remains committed to our international students and applicants during the continuing presence of COVID 19. We will make every effort to assist you during the application, evaluation, immigration, and enrollment processes as the impact of the pandemic continues to change. [This includes access to visa appointments at U.S. consulates around the world, access to English language proficiency and GRE/GMAT testing and test sites, international transportation and travel processes, guidelines, procedures and restrictions.]

For applicants to the Spring 2021 semester, we will accept as an option, in addition to TOEFL, IELTS, and PTE EXAMS, the Duolingo English Test, as proof of English language proficiency.

The School of Nursing and Health Professions will waive the Psychology GRE requirement for applicants to the PsyD program for Spring 2021.
