Foreign Degree Credential Evaluation
Once your academic documents are ready, the next step is determining their U.S. equivalency. This process is required to formalize your student record, regardless of whether you choose the Online or Hybrid format. It applies to both Bachelor’s and Master’s programs.
For Master’s degree applicants, only the Bachelor’s degree evaluation is required. A High School diploma evaluation is not necessary. You may complete this requirement through one of the following options:
- MIU Direct Management: MIU will process your credential evaluation through IEE for a fee of $150 USD. This is the recommended option for a faster and simpler process, as MIU manages all administrative procedures.
- Self-Managed Evaluation: You may submit an evaluation completed by any member organization of NACES or AICE. This option is mandatory for RTC (Recognition of Degree Titles) cases or when official English translations are required.
Once your degree has been validated, the final step is to confirm the language in which you wish to complete your program.
Proof of Language Proficiency
You may choose to study in either English or Spanish. If you wish to pursue your program in English and your home country is not English-speaking, or if your previous institution did not offer its programs in English, you must demonstrate language proficiency equivalent to a B2 level. Meeting the required language proficiency for your studies is a fundamental admission requirement.
To meet this standard, you may take or submit any of the following official certificates, meeting the minimum required scores listed below:
| Exam | Minimum Score (Bachelor’s / Master’s) |
| Duolingo English Test | 95 (Bachelor’s) / 100 (Master’s) |
| TOEFL iBT (Online) | 61 (Bachelor’s) / 71 (Master’s) |
| TOEFL PBT (Paper) | 57 (Bachelor’s) / 60 (Master’s) |
| IELTS | 6.0 (Bachelor’s) / 6.5 (Master’s) |
| Pearson Test of English Academic | 44 (Bachelor’s) / 50 (Master’s) |
| 4-skill Michigan English Test (MET) | 53 (Bachelor’s) / 55 (Master’s) |
| Michigan ECCE or ECPE | 650/LP (Both) |
