Step 1: Explore Programs and English Proficiency Standards

  • Explore UoPeople’s range of programs (Business Administration, Health Science, and Computer Science) to find one that aligns with your academic goals.
  • Take note of the English proficiency requirements for your chosen program, as some may have specific proficiency levels.
  • Consider taking an English language proficiency test like TOEFL, IELTS(6.0), or Duolingo if required, and submit your scores during the application process.

Step 2: Create your account and complete the application.

  • Visit the UoPeople website and register for an account.
  • Thoroughly fill out the online application, providing accurate academic details.
  • Upload the necessary documents, including transcripts, certificates, and proof of English proficiency, if applicable.

Step 3: Process the Application Fee

  • Cover the one-time, non-refundable fee through the online portal to facilitate the application process. The fee was $60 at the time of my application.
  • If you lack financial support, consider reaching out via email to request a reduction or waiver of the application fee.

Step 4: Await Admission Decisions

  • After submitting your application, expect to receive the admission decision within a few weeks, as UoPeople follows a rolling admission process.
  • Keep track of your online portal for timely updates.

Step 5: Utilize ESL Courses and English Proficiency Support

  • Enroll in ESL courses as needed to fulfill program language prerequisites.

Step 6: Explore Financial Aid and Scholarships

  • Explore the various financial aid and scholarship opportunities provided by the University of the People.
  • Submit any required documentation for financial aid to maximize support for your educational journey.

Step 7: Submit Documents and Enroll in Courses

  • Upon acceptance, ensure the submission of any outstanding documents, such as certified copies of academic transcripts.
  • Enroll in your selected courses through the online portal (Moodle), while staying mindful of important deadlines.

Step 8: Engage in Orientation

  • Participate in UoPeople’s online orientation to familiarize yourself with the virtual learning environment, academic expectations, and available resources, which is crucial for a smooth transition into your studies.

Step 9: Begin Your Educational Journey

  • Active participation in your courses is essential for success. Start your studies, interact with professors and fellow learners, and make the most of the resources provided by UoPeople.
  • If necessary, utilize ESL support to enhance your English language proficiency.
