   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and check the website for entry requirements, document lists, deadlines, and any country-specific instructions. Because no separate international-admissions details are given, the admissions office is the place to confirm what is required for your citizenship, academic background, and intended campus.

   What it costs

   Tuition is not published in the information available, so confirm the current rate with the university’s admissions office. As with most universities in the United States, living costs will depend on the city, housing choice, food, transport, and health insurance, so budget separately for San Marcos or whichever campus you plan to attend.
