The language of instruction at Walden is English; therefore, academic success depends upon a student’s ability to converse in, write, and understand English. Applicants who do not possess an associate degree or higher from an institution in one of the following countries must submit official scores from one of the tests listed below: Australia, Belize, the British Caribbean and British West Indies, Canada (except Quebec), England, Guyana, Ireland, Liberia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Scotland, the United States, or Wales. Scores may not be more than 2 years old. Graduates from universities where course instruction and evaluation were conducted in English, and for which university verification is available (through the International Handbook of Universities, published and edited by IAU/UNESCO, 2003), may request that this requirement be waived. Additional information may be requested from the university’s registrar’s office to verify that the instruction was truly conducted in English.
