Are you an international student interested in studying at KCMA?

Are you an internation student interested in studying at KCMA?Great! Then here is what we need from you in order to review your application for admission:

  1. Complete your application online or print a hard copy to send by mail. (The paper version has a $25 application fee, which is waived if you apply online instead.)

  2. Complete and return the student personal statement form. On this page, you can submit your form online or download a PDF of the form to send in via mail. Essays are used to assess writing abilities and are graded for content.
  3. Have all secondary school and college transcripts sent directly to KCMA. Click here for more details on requesting transcripts. If your transcripts from secondary school or college are in a language other than English, they will need to be officially translated. KCMA works with two companies: Josef Silny and Associates Inc. (info@jsilny.com), and World Education Services (info@wes.org) for translations.
  4. Scores from Test of English as a Foreign Language www.toefl.com if you come from a non-English-speaking country. We are looking for a score of 550 for the paper-based test or 213 for computer-based.
  5. Complete the Math Placement Test so that your application can be reviewed. You do not have to take this test if you have transferrable credits that meet Kettering College's math requirements.  Check with the Admissions office for more information.
For you and for us, we also need you to provide proof that you can pay for at least one academic year at KCMA. We provide a Financial Certification Form to help you organize this answer. This form will be sent to you with your acceptance letter.

How do I get my I-20 (Immigration papers)?
Once you have been accepted, you will return a $1500 international student deposit. When we get this from you, we can sign and send to you an I-20. The I-20, along with your acceptance letter, will be key in the process of you entering the United States.

Once your file is completed, the Registrar's office will automatically review all transcripts to assess which courses will transfer. They will then send you an official letter to let you know which courses transferred.
