International Students
Tuck has a long tradition of welcoming students from around the world to campus. We encourage you to join us!
APPLYING
International applicants may apply to Tuck in any round. But if a U.S. visa cannot be secured by August 1, we will defer those admissions to the following year. U.S. visa eligibility forms will be made available to all accepted international students, though these forms cannot be processed until the student has paid the enrollment deposit. Verification of financial support is required for all enrolling international students. Tuck provides assistance in facilitating the U.S. visa process via the Dartmouth College International Office.
FINANCIAL AID
To be considered for financial aid, international students should complete the International Application for Tuck School of Business Financial Aid and submit with signed copies of all pages of the latest tax return you filed in your country (and those of your spouse, if applicable). If you are not required to file a return, please submit a statement from your employer stating all earnings, allowances, and taxes paid.
All amounts on tax returns, pay stubs, and financial statements must be converted to U.S. $ and the corresponding lines related to income, allowances, and taxes must be translated into English.
