Hofstra University receives thousands of applications for its UG and PG programs, and due to the high volume of applications, it may take three to four weeks, depending on the application. Undergraduate students receive their response in one month once they have applied or a month after the deadline ends. On the other hand, a graduate application may take more time to get a response through email.

No, Hofstra University does not provide a full scholarship to international students; instead, it offers a partial scholarship to undergraduate and graduate applicants, based on their excellent academic performance and overall assessment of the applications. International undergraduate students do not require any separate application; they will get a scholarship based on their application and receive it if qualified. For graduate students, partial scholarships are available, and these are limited, competitive, and require excellent merit.
