Admission Requirements
Admissions often hears the question: “What do you look for in a University applicant?” Although grades and test scores are important, we look beyond numbers and statistics.
Admission to University is a two-step process: satisfying college and major requirements and selection. All achievement—both academic and nonacademic/personal—is considered in the context of your educational circumstances, with an emphasis on the opportunities or challenges presented to you and your response to them. No single attribute or characteristic guarantees the admission of any applicant to University.
Admission Requirements
All applicants must meet University admission requirements:
- Freshman
- Transfer Students
- International Students
Students must refer to their transcript(s) as they fill out the application to ensure the information they enter is accurate. Applicants should not submit transcripts at this point in the process. Please do not submit letters of recommendation or other supporting documentation such as awards, photographs, poetry, etc. with the application. They will not be forwarded, returned, or retained.
