Students who have obtained their permanent residency card must submit a copy of their permanent residency card along with all of the requirements for regular admission as a freshman or transfer student. Prospective International students must submit the following in order to be reviewed for acceptance to Victory University:

1. Application: An application may be submitted by logging on to the Victory University website and completing the online application or by submitting a paper application to the Office of Admissions.

2. Transcripts: Official copies of all transcripts must be submitted to the Office of Admissions. All documents must be in English and be accompanied by an evaluation from an approved international transcript evaluation service.

The minimum equivalent to a US GPA of 2.00 is required.

3. Score report of the American College Testing program (ACT) or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT): If the prospective international student is an incoming freshman (having less than 30 transferrable credits) and an expected student athlete, the American College Testing program (ACT) or the Scholastic Aptitude test (SAT) is required. For all other incoming international first-time freshman, the ACT, SAT, or other nationally equivalent assessment for college entrance will be required.
