International Admissions

International applicants may be initially accepted; but admission ultimately depends upon the required submission of the following documentation:

• Demonstrated English proficiency for those whose native language is not English: TOEFL scores of 500 PBT/173 CPT/61 iBT; or certification of English language studies
• Evaluation by a reputable educational credential evaluation service of documented academic equivalency of a U.S. high school diploma
• Completed international student information form
• Certified financial affidavit form
• Bank statement(s) issued within the past 30 days indicating availability of funds for full tuition in U.S. dollars
• See the School catalog for more details or contact the admissions office.

Accepted international students are issued a SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) generated form I-20, needed to apply for an M-1 visa at the U.S. Embassy in his or her country of citizenship. He or she must also pay the SEVIS I-901 administration fee.

Creative Sample & Assessment

All applicants are subject to a qualifying assessment.

We strongly recommend that you submit a creative sample, to help us gauge your qualifications for our program; and although this will not solely determine acceptance in the program, it will weigh significantly in our decision. Your sample can be anything you have ever done to express yourself creatively. This might be computer art or designs, photography, film or video projects, narrative stories or scripts, scale models, songs or music, illustrations, paintings, sculpture, etc. Ideally it should be submitted in a format that we can keep, i.e. duplicates. All materials submitted will remain in possession of the school.
Creative Sample Submission

When you are ready to submit your creative samples, please email them to Admissions@DAVESchool.com or fax them to 407-598-2890. Alternatively, you may mail them to our physical address:
