About the Berea College Undergraduate Scholarships 2021/2022 for International Students:

Berea is committed to providing a high-quality education for high achieving students with limited financial resources.

Selection:

• Although international enrollment is limited to about 25 new students each fall, Berea College nevertheless seeks to serve students from as many different areas of the world as possible.
• Successful candidates for admission have a record of outstanding academic achievement and a strong sense of educational purpose.
• Berea College does not teach English to those who have not yet mastered the language.
• International students must have mastered the English language sufficiently to understand and participate in class lectures and discussions, read required texts and other materials, and complete written and other assignments.

However, all enrolled international students will be assessed to determine whether they would benefit from an English as a Second Language (ESL) course in the first semester.

An additional ESL course may also be required in the second semester for some students. The Nursing program has higher English proficiency requirements (TOEFL iBT 83, with a 26 on the spoken section).

If admitted to Berea with lower English proficiency, students will not be admitted to the major until the required scores are achieved.

Students will be given the opportunity to retest, however, students failing to meet the TOEFL iBT requirement by the first day of their third term of enrollment at Berea are ineligible to pursue the Nursing major.

If admitted to Berea with lower English proficiency, students will not be admitted to the major until the required scores are achieved
