Next, submit official TOEFL (where applicable), or official ACT/SAT scores to the Office of Admission.
Also, submit a final official transcript or certificate from the high school (secondary school) you attended. Where applicable, your transcripts must be accompanied by an English translation. Also, you may be required to pay an additional fee if an outside service is needed to evaluate any supporting documents, transcripts, etc. For students transferring from institutions outside of the United States, we require that all transcripts are evaluated by one of the following services:
World Education Services (WES): Course by course evaluation $160
American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO): Course by course evaluation $190
(Use of other services is subject to approval by the Bethel College Registrar.)
Next, submit an official letter from a bank or sponsor regarding current finances.
*Once these steps have been completed, an International Packet will be mailed which will include paperwork necessary to issue a Form I-20.
Finally, you must submit MMR and tetanus immunization records. The State of Tennessee requires all students born after 1956 to furnish documented proof of two measles, mumps and rubella immunizations and one current tetanus immunization.
We encourage you to apply to Bethel College by November 16 of your senior year in order to maximize financial aid opportunities and enjoy other benefits of an early admission decision. You may apply for admission as soon as you complete your junior year of high school.
We will notify you of the admission decision within two weeks of the completion of your admission file.
After you are notified of acceptance, you must submit the $150 Enrollment Fee. This deposit will reserve your place in the student body and it will be credited to your first semester tuition expenses.
An additional deposit of $175 will be required to reserve housing accommodations if you are a resident student.
Students are required to submit proof of health insurance to our Human Resource Department and immunization records to our Housing Office. Contact
Carol Pinson at 731-352-4020 with any questions regarding health insurance and
Peggy Carter at 731-352-4096 with any questions regarding immunizations.
