High School Documents for International Students

Rowan College at Burlington County requires proof of successful completion of studies equivalent to U.S. high (secondary) school for F-1 admission. This requirement relates to the USDHS regulations that  F-1 students maintain full-time study and make progress toward completion of a program.

As proof of successful completion of U.S. high school equivalency, you should submit a certified copy of high school transcripts translated and evaluated into English by any current members of NACES (National Association of Credential Evaluation Services) that verifies completion of secondary school. Test scores are not proof of High School completion. This may be a transcript that shows all courses taken, grades received and graduation date, or it may be a certificate of national examination results, or some other document. A certified copy is an original document or attested (signed with official stamp or seal) photocopy that has been issued by the educational institution or government agency responsible for issuing the document. An official English translation must accompany the document.

If you have not yet completed the last year of high school, you may still apply, Submit an official transcript showing the courses you have completed and a letter in English from your school stating that you are currently enrolled and your expected date of completion. You will be required to provide proof of completion when you arrive at RCBC.
