Global Assessment Certificate

The world's most recognized university preparation program, the Global Assessment Certificate (GAC) was developed by ACT in conjunction with universities and accrediting bodies around the world to prepare students for university study in English-speaking countries.

Otterbein University is a Pathway University for students completing their GAC. Such students will be eligible for admission to Otterbein by meeting the international freshmen admission requirements, including a secondary school GPA of at least 2.5 and an ACT composite of at least 20. Students for whom English is a second language must present a minimum internet-based score of 79 on the TOEFL exam.

Students completing the GAC will enter Otterbein as international freshmen, and they will be eligible for transfer credit as outlined below:

English courses taken through GAC are considered developmental and do not earn University credit. Developmental courses do not count towards a degree.

GAC students may be eligible for scholarships based on their academic credentials, however they must provide proof of ability to pay in order to enroll in the University.
