In addition to submitting the materials required for admission, international students wishing to transfer to Lindenwood from a SEVIS-sponsored school should also submit the following documents. Any and all transcripts must be submitted to Lindenwood University regardless of the credit(s) being transferable or not.
- Official transcripts from college or university, if the degree was received from an international institution the transcripts and proof of the undergraduate diploma or degree confirmation must be submitted in the student’s native language along with a certified English translation. If the degree was from an American institution have the transcripts sent directly to Lindenwood University. If graduate level credits have been received from an American institution have the transcripts sent directly from the school to Lindenwood University, if the credits were received from an international institution those transcripts will need to be sent to World Evaluation Services (WES). For more information about transcript evaluation, contact WES at http://www.wes.org.
