Can I apply if my degree is from a non-English-speaking country?
Updated at Feb 6, 2026, Viewed 0 times
Yes, you can absolutely apply to the Atlanta College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (ACLAS) even if your previous degree was earned in a non-English-speaking country. We welcome students from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds, and your eligibility is not limited by the language of instruction of your prior degree.
Do I Need to Prove My English Skills?
No formal English test results are required (such as IELTS, TOEFL, or Duolingo) to apply to ACLAS.
However, all students are expected to have at least a basic understanding of English proficiency in order to follow course content, and complete the assessments.
What If I Want to Take the Duolingo Test?
You are not required to submit a Duolingo test result for ACLAS admission. Our collaboration with Duolingo only provides a discounted price for students who choose to take the test for their own needs, such as applications to other universities, work opportunities, or visa purposes.
