I can't speak to all HES courses, but the CORe course requires you to take the final at a Pearson testing center. It's multiple choice and computer-based so this would probably be a unique situation. I'd estimate that 50-70% of the students in my CORe cohort are overseas.. I've also heard from students at HES who said that the ratio of foreign to US citizens is 4:1. I suspect that finding an approved testing center for the final won't be a problem, if a testing center is even required at all.
