The Application Process Steps are described here
 
The following is additional application information for international students.

Use the fee waiver code: "International" to waive the application fee. 
Transcripts
Effective July 15, 2010, all foreign college/university transcripts MUST be sent to World Education Services, Inc.
 
Please note that an evaluation by WES does not guarantee credits will be transferred to Nyack College.  WES will send their analysis of your transcripts directly to Nyack College for further review.
 
If we receive foreign transcripts directly from you or from your college/university, we will not evaluate them and no credits will transfer into Nyack College.
 
Nyack College requires a COURSE BY COURSE evaluation from WES.  The cost is $160 payable to WES.

Cost
The current cost of attending Nyack College for the nine-month academic year 2012-2013 is approximately $31,000 (Nyack, NY Campus) or $22,500 (NYC Commuter Campus). The United States government requires that students demonstrate ability to cover related academic costs. Therefore students need to show a total support of $31,000 (Nyack, NY Campus) or $22,500 (NYC Commuter Campus) per year to cover this estimated total budget. This includes tuition and fees, and room and board, travel costs, books, or costs of living during periods when the school is closed. Please keep in mind that this amount is subject to changes without prior notification. Health Insurance is optional and available for an additional cost. Possible on-campus employment once you are enrolled cannot be counted as part of this support.
 
1. Once you have the I-20, you will need to pay a one time $200 fee to SEVIS online (called I-901 for processing the I-20). You will be sent the link once you have been accepted.
 
2. You must submit an advanced deposit of USD$2,000. You can make this payment online. (The $2,000 deposit for the Fall semester is refundable until May 1 of the enrollment year. No refunds are given for Spring). Contact us for information on wiring Payments to Nyack College.
