Your Future in Digital Administration Starts Here

Coming to study in the U.S. is a big step. And honestly? The paperwork alone can feel overwhelming before you even think about classes or finding an apartment.

We work with international students from over 40 countries. Most of them tell us the same thing: they wish someone had explained what studying here actually looks like beyond the brochures.

So here's what we do differently. We don't just hand you forms and wish you luck. We walk you through the F-1 visa process, help you understand Ohio's cost of living (which is way more reasonable than coastal cities), and connect you with other students who've been exactly where you are now.

Three Ways to Begin Your Program

Not everyone arrives with the same academic background or English proficiency. That's completely normal. Pick the pathway that matches where you are right now, and we'll get you where you need to be.

Direct Entry

You've got your English test scores sorted (TOEFL 80+ or IELTS 6.5+) and meet our academic requirements. You can jump straight into the main program starting September 2025.

This works well for students who studied at international schools or took English-heavy programs at university.

Start Date: September 2025 intake

Conditional Admission

Your academic records look good, but you need more time with English. We partner with local language institutes where you can study intensive English for one or two semesters.

Once you hit the required proficiency level, you transition into the full program without reapplying. Several students from Brazil and Vietnam went this route in 2024.

Bridge Program: 16-32 weeks depending on level

Bridge Program

If you're switching fields (maybe you studied business but want digital skills now), this option gives you foundational courses before the main curriculum begins.

Think of it as a semester to get up to speed on technical concepts while adjusting to studying in English and American classroom expectations.

What Actually Happens After You Arrive

Look, we could tell you about job placement rates or average salaries. But what you really want to know is whether this works. Whether moving halfway across the world to study something technical makes sense.

Here's one student's experience. She went through the program last year, dealt with the same concerns you probably have right now.

Saoirse Venturi, international student and digital administration program graduate

I came from Croatia in January 2024 with decent English but zero idea how American workplace culture functioned. The technical skills were challenging but manageable. What surprised me was how much the program prepared me for things I didn't expect to matter: how to write professional emails that don't sound too formal or too casual, how meetings actually run here, even how to network without feeling awkward.

By August, I had an OPT position with a healthcare tech company in Cleveland. Not because the program guaranteed anything, but because I knew how to present what I'd learned in ways that made sense to employers here. Also, living in Wickliffe instead of a major city meant I saved enough money to not panic about expenses while job searching.

Applications Open for September 2025

We start reviewing applications in March and make decisions on a rolling basis. International spots fill up by June most years, so earlier is better if you need time for visa processing.
