Webster University Tashkent

About Webster University Tashkent

Webster University Tashkent opened in 2019 as an official campus of Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri. Its establishment followed Uzbekistan’s Presidential Resolution No. PP-4245. The university states that its diplomas and academic awards are recognized as higher-education documents in Uzbekistan, while Webster University’s institutional accreditation by the US Higher Learning Commission extends to the Tashkent location. This combination gives students a US-based curriculum delivered within Uzbekistan’s regulatory framework. The Tashkent operation is a campus within Webster’s international network rather than a separately accredited university system. Webster describes the wider institution as independent and nonprofit. Students follow a shared Webster course catalog and credit system, which may be useful for those interested in an internationally structured education. Any proposed movement between campuses or study-abroad participation should nevertheless be confirmed for the student’s specific degree, immigration position and course sequence. Official 2026 commencement reporting confirms that the campus remains active and awards both bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The university reported more than 6,370 enrolled students from over 32 countries in fall 2025, making this a comparatively large urban campus rather than a small overseas study center. That figure is institution-reported and applies to fall 2025. The campus presents itself as English-medium, and admissions requirements include formal evidence of English ability. Applicants should compare the main Tashkent campus with Webster programs delivered at partner locations because availability can differ by site.

Webster Tashkent accepts applicants from all countries and handles applications online. Undergraduate applicants must have completed recognized secondary education and normally need a minimum 2.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale. Required materials include an official transcript, identity document and English-language evidence. Documents issued in another language must be accompanied by a notarized English translation. Students still completing school may submit earlier-year transcripts for a provisional decision, which is updated after the final transcript arrives. For full undergraduate English admission, the current page lists IELTS 6.0, TOEFL iBT 80, Duolingo 120, iTEP 3.7, PTE 53 or LanguageCert C1. Lower specified IELTS, TOEFL, Duolingo or iTEP results may support conditional admission through the ESL Bridge route. Applicants should use the complete official test table because conditions differ by examination. Graduate applicants need a recognized bachelor’s degree and normally a 2.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale. The published graduate English standards include IELTS 6.0, TOEFL iBT 80, Duolingo 120, PTE 53, LanguageCert C1 or iTEP 3.7. A waiver may be considered for applicants whose bachelor’s degree was taught in English, but eligibility must be confirmed with admissions. The university describes admissions as rolling and offers multiple entry opportunities, but its visible deadline table still contains a 2025 date. Applicants for 2026 or 2027 should therefore request the current deadline for their intended program and intake. The university says decisions typically take two to three weeks after receipt of the application and documents. Enrollment is completed only after an admitted student pays the first term’s tuition.

Webster Tashkent’s current academic portfolio comprises bachelor’s and master’s education. The official academics page lists undergraduate study in biology, business administration, chemistry, computer science, economics, education studies, international law, international relations, management information systems, media studies, nursing and psychology. Graduate offerings listed for Tashkent include business administration, health administration, education and innovation, strategic communications, and teaching English to speakers of other languages. No PhD or other doctoral program is listed, so applicants should not rely on the database’s former doctoral-level designation. The mix combines professionally oriented fields with social sciences and liberal-arts subjects. Webster’s Global Citizenship Program forms part of the undergraduate curriculum and is intended to develop communication, critical thinking and problem-solving across majors. Several minors are also available, including business, economics, film, television and video production, international relations, media studies and psychology, although the psychology minor is associated with specified partner locations rather than the main campus. Program location matters. The university identifies extended teaching sites and partner institutions in addition to 13 Alisher Navoi Avenue. For example, selected biology, chemistry, nursing and health-administration provision is shown at the Tashkent Medical Academy location, while some other offerings appear at regional partner sites. Students should verify where all required classes and practical components are delivered before enrolling. The 2026–2027 calendar uses semester and eight-week term structures, with separate registration dates for undergraduate and graduate students. The calendar lists summer 2026, fall 2026 and spring 2027 teaching and graduation milestones. Course sequencing, credit transfer, double-major feasibility and access to another Webster campus should be confirmed with an academic adviser for the chosen program.

Student Life & Environment

Campus life is organized around a student government, student-led clubs, university events and orientation. The Student Government Association has elected officers and committees covering events, sports, student support and public relations. Its stated functions include representing student concerns, managing club and event budgets, and acting as a link between students and university leadership. The published club list covers team and individual sports, creative interests, community service and academic interests. Examples include football, basketball, volleyball, tennis, chess, programming, public speaking, debate, radio, book and charity clubs. Because club activity can change between terms, incoming students should confirm which groups are active and how membership or team selection works during their intake. University accommodation is available to both local and international students. The official housing page describes 50 furnished rooms with total capacity for 129 residents, shared kitchens and laundry facilities, internet, study furniture, recreation areas, security and on-site support. It also says staff can assist students seeking off-campus housing. The page does not publish a current 2026–2027 room price, contract length, meal arrangement or allocation deadline, so applicants should obtain these details directly before budgeting or paying a deposit. New students attend orientation before classes. Undergraduate orientation covers academic systems, policies, services and ways to participate in campus life; the university describes attendance as mandatory for undergraduates. Graduate students are strongly encouraged to attend because their courses use Webster’s online systems extensively.

Location & Surroundings

The main campus is at 13 Alisher Navoi Avenue in Tashkent’s Shaykhantakhur district, postcode 100011. The university identifies Pakhtakor and Alisher Navoi as nearby metro stations and lists several bus routes serving the area. This central setting can make the campus accessible from multiple parts of the city, although students should test the actual commute from prospective housing during peak travel periods. Tashkent is Uzbekistan’s capital and its principal administrative, commercial and cultural center. For students, an urban location means access to government institutions, businesses, cultural venues and transport connections beyond the campus. International students should budget separately for housing, local transportation, food, immigration-related expenses and health needs because the university’s tuition table does not represent a complete cost of attendance. Some programs or components are offered through extended locations and partner institutions rather than exclusively at the Navoi Avenue campus. Applicants in biology, chemistry, nursing, health administration or any program advertised at another site should confirm the teaching address, laboratory or clinical arrangements, and expected travel between locations. Campus visits and open-house events are offered at the main address, giving applicants an opportunity to inspect facilities and discuss location-specific questions before enrolling.

Costs & Career Outcomes

For 2026–2027, standard full-time undergraduate tuition is listed as 50,350,000 Uzbek soums for two semesters, excluding nursing, biology and chemistry. Local-student tuition for nursing, biology, chemistry and psychology is 53,000,000 soums. Foreign undergraduate students are charged 25% more than local students. The university permits the annual undergraduate flat fee to be paid in halves at the start of each semester and warns that rates can change when the academic year begins in the summer. Published 2026–2027 graduate program totals are 99,378,000 soums for the 36-credit MBA, 82,815,000 soums for a listed 30-credit MBA route, 115,941,000 for the MHA, 61,215,000 each for MA TESOL and Education and Innovation, and 99,378,000 for Strategic Communications. Foreign graduate tuition is listed as 25% above local rates. Because two MBA structures appear in the same table, applicants should ask which curriculum applies to their entry cohort. Graduate installment payment is available. These figures are tuition, not a comprehensive student budget. The official pages reviewed do not provide a 2026–2027 housing price, meal plan, books estimate, transport allowance, insurance cost or consolidated cost of attendance. Scholarship and discount eligibility also cannot be inferred from the headline tuition table; applicants should request a written personal fee calculation before committing. Academic pages emphasize professional preparation and include career-oriented curricula, while the wider Webster network offers an international alumni community. However, no verified Tashkent-specific graduate employment rate, salary figure or employer list was found in the selected current sources. Career decisions should therefore be based on the curriculum, location, practical requirements and direct questions about internships and career support rather than unsupported outcome claims.
