Pace University is a university in New York State founded in 1906, with more than 14,000 students. It has a New York City campus in lower Manhattan, a Westchester campus in Pleasantville, the Haub Law campus in White Plains, and an online division, Pace Online.

International students are supported by the Office of International Admission, and the university provides information in several languages. There are three routes into an undergraduate degree: direct admission for students who meet the requirements; the Pace Global Pathways Program, which combines English language instruction with credit-bearing academic courses and guarantees progression to a degree on successful completion; and intensive courses at the English Language Institute.

Associate's and bachelor's degrees (BA, BS, BBA, BFA) across Pace's colleges and schools, for example:

• Business (Lubin School): accounting, public accounting and other BBA majors
• Performing arts (Sands College): acting, acting for film and media
• Arts and sciences (Dyson College)
• Computer science and information systems (Seidenberg School)
• Health professions and education

Combined degree programmes, such as the BBA/MBA in Public Accounting, lead to two degrees in five years.

International students follow the same steps as all first-year and transfer applicants: an application through the Pace online application, the Common Application or the Coalition Application, with a $50 non-refundable fee, and official transcripts, diplomas and leaving examination results in English. Unofficial copies can be used for the initial review; admission is then confirmed on receipt of official transcripts, sent by the school or preferably by a NACES-accredited credential evaluator. Global Pathways applicants also submit two letters of recommendation and a personal statement.

Minimum scores for direct undergraduate admission (results valid for two years):

• TOEFL iBT: 4.0 on the new scale (from 21 January 2026) or 80 on the old scale
• IELTS: 6.5
• PTE Academic: 54
• Duolingo English Test: 115
• Cambridge English (B2 First, C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency): 176

Waivers apply to citizens of English-speaking countries and to some SAT/ACT results (SAT ERW 520, ACT English 20). Students with lower scores (for example IELTS 5.5 or TOEFL 61) can enter through the Global Pathways Program.

Undergraduate tuition for the 2026-27 academic year (before aid): $55,040 for full-time study (12-18 credits), or $62,040 at the Sands College of Performing Arts. Standard fees, which now include books, are charged in addition. The part-time rate in fall and spring is $1,580 per credit.

Bachelor's degrees can be combined with a master's in five years in some programmes. The Pace Global Pathways Program for international students lasts one to three semesters (4, 8 or 12 months), depending on English level at entry, with classes of 10-20 students and 7-17 credits counting towards the bachelor's degree.

Pace offers merit-based scholarships to high-achieving students, and applicants can use the university's Merit Scholarship Estimator to estimate an award. According to the university, average annual institutional aid for undergraduates is $35,328.
