Selected programme options include BS Computer Science — downtown Portland campus; 180 quarter credits. These are selected examples, not the full catalogue. Availability, campus, mode of study and teaching language must be checked for your intake.

International first-year applicants need completed secondary education equivalent to US high school and a 2.5 GPA equivalent. Later upper-division CS enrolment requires junior standing, the specified lower-division courses and a separate opt-in process; CS prerequisite grades must be C or better. IELTS Academic 6.0 overall, including at least 6.0 in reading and writing, or an approved alternative. IELTS One Skill Retake is not accepted under the published policy.

2026/27 nonresident undergraduate base tuition is US$712 per quarter credit. After CS upper-division opt-in, the Maseeh undergraduate tariff is US$782.60 per credit instead of the base rate. At 12 or more credits, mandatory fees are US$691 per term. New-student matriculation is US$475; health insurance is US$1,189 per term unless approved coverage permits a waiver. Housing, food and other expenses are additional. Fees are not a university-wide average. Confirm the exact course, fee year, currency, deposit, extra charges and refund conditions before paying.

First-year fall 2027 application: 1 August 2027, documents: 5 August. Winter 2027: apply by 5 December 2026, documents by 10 December; spring 2027: 5 March and 10 March respectively. Allow separate time for international documents and visa processing. Upper-division CS opt-in is a later academic milestone, not a first-year admission deadline. Fall, winter and spring entry can be planned around the lower-division course sequence. Fall 2027 begins 27 September; winter 2027 begins 4 January and spring 2027 on 29 March. A semester start date is not an application closing date. Check scholarship and visa timelines separately.
