*Liberal Arts and Sciences students must complete 4 years in a single language to graduate from the university; Business students must complete 4 years in one language or 2 years each in two languages. Students who have taken the requisite years in high school have fulfilled these requirements. Engineering students must complete 2 years in a single language which meets both the admission and graduation requirement.
Course requirements for international applicants from secondary/high schools outside of the US are not strictly counted. It is understood that worldwide curriculums vary widely, so evaluators of non-US transcripts will consider the educational system of each applicant and review holistically.
*學(xué)習(xí)人文藝術(shù)與科學(xué)的學(xué)生必須完成四年的單門語言學(xué)習(xí)，才能從愛荷華大學(xué)畢業(yè)。商學(xué)院學(xué)生必須完成四年的單門語言學(xué)習(xí)，或者完成兩年的雙語言學(xué)習(xí)。在高中參加預(yù)備年學(xué)習(xí)的學(xué)生已經(jīng)滿足這些要求。工程專業(yè)學(xué)生必須完成兩年單門語言學(xué)習(xí)，才能同時(shí)符合入學(xué)要求和畢業(yè)要求。
對(duì)于從美國(guó)以外國(guó)家的中學(xué)/高中畢業(yè)的國(guó)際申請(qǐng)人，其課程要求不被嚴(yán)格考量。由于世界各地的課程差異甚大，因此對(duì)于非美國(guó)高中開具的成績(jī)單，評(píng)估將考慮申請(qǐng)人的教育制度，將整體審核。
2.English Proficiency Requirements
Applicants whose first language is not English must submit results of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for admission to the university. Some alternatives to the TOEFL are accepted, as described below.
The University of Iowa's institution code on the TOEFL is 6681.

愛荷華大學(xué)的托福機(jī)構(gòu)代碼為6681。
Minimum TOEFL Score Requirements for Admission
Internet-based test (iBT): 80 with no1subscore lower than 17
Paper-based test (PBT): 530
NOTE: For students (early admission or transfer) who are new to the University of Iowa and admitted directly to the College of Nursing as a pre-licensure BSN student, a score of 100 on the iBT TOEFL is required.
English Proficiency Evaluation—Admitted students will also need to take an on-campus English Proficiency Evaluation unless they have a TOEFL score of 100 or higher on the iBT or 600 or higher on the PBT.
The University of Iowa takes cases of TOEFL fraud very seriously, as does the Department of Homeland Security. When the university is notified that a student’s TOEFL score has been invalidated and the Educational Testing Services company confirms that it was not due to an administrative error, the university will take immediate steps to address the issue. This may include cancellation of the student’s admission and termination of the student immigration record, in which case the student must leave the U.S. immediately. The Department of Homeland Security will also be notified; TOEFL fraud is considered visa fraud, and may impact a student’s ability to obtain a new U.S. visa in the future.

愛荷華大學(xué)對(duì)于托福造假的態(tài)度非常嚴(yán)肅，國(guó)土安全部也是。如果學(xué)校被告知學(xué)生的托福成績(jī)無效，如果托福教育考試服務(wù)中心確定不是由于管理失誤，那么愛荷華大學(xué)將立即采取措施，解決問題。這可能包括取消學(xué)生的錄取和終止學(xué)生的移民記錄。這種請(qǐng)看下，學(xué)生必須立即離開美國(guó)。國(guó)土安全部也將被告知。托福造假涉及簽證造假，并且可能會(huì)影響到學(xué)生將來拿到新的美國(guó)簽證的能力。
