International Student Admissions

SUNY Oswego is home to over 270 international students from more than 35 countries around the world, and the list is growing every year. Some enroll as degree-seeking undergraduate or graduate students, while others come as temporary exchange students or to study English. 

In addition to their academic work, international students play a vital role in our campus community. When you ask an international student at SUNY Oswego what makes their experience a special one, they will tell you it is the quality of the relationships they build with others — with their professors, classmates, and colleagues at their internships.

How to Apply

Undergrad Students

Degree-seeking undergraduate students form the majority of the international population at SUNY Oswego. Review information on admissions requirements, expenses, scholarships, and the application process. 

Graduate Students

International graduate students pursue a variety of academic programs. Specific deadlines and requirements vary by program. Review required documentation, annual expenses and information on the application process.

Exchange Students

We offer exchange opportunities with over 60 institutions. Staying for only a semester or two, exchange students are able to improve their English and pursue coursework required to complete their programs of study at their home university.

Transfer Students

Applicants who have registered for at least 12 credit hours at another institution, following graduation from high school, are considered transfer applicants. Get information about transferring from a university in the US or abroad.
