   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the college’s admissions process and check the official website for entry requirements, deadlines, required documents, and whether the programme they want has any additional conditions. If they plan to study at one of the satellite centers, they should confirm the study location and how that affects application steps.

   What it costs

   The college does not publish a tuition fee range in the available information, so confirm the current cost with its admissions office. Expect living costs in Pennsylvania to be separate from tuition and to vary by location and personal housing choices.

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not published, so confirm it on the official website before applying. A student moving from abroad should also check visa documents, English-language requirements, the exact campus or center for the programme, and whether clinical or placement-based study has extra enrollment steps.
