Portland State University’s admission process involves several steps. First, applicants must complete an online application via the university’s portal or the Common App, paying a non-refundable fee. Official high school or college transcripts, along with standardized test scores (if required), must be submitted.
Prospective students may need to provide letters of recommendation, a personal statement, or essays, depending on the program. International applicants must demonstrate English proficiency through tests like TOEFL or IELTS. Deadlines vary by term and program, so checking the university’s website for specific dates is essential. Some programs may require interviews or additional materials.
