Individuals seeking admission to the University with the intent of completing a certificate, diploma, or degree must be admitted as regular (matriculated) students. Information for applicants is provided below. Use the links provided for additional information on dual enrollment of high school students, admission of home school graduates, study by transient students, and admission of international applicants.

First-Year Students

Admission as first-year students to an online degree or diploma program requires a high school diploma or the equivalent. Admission to an online certificate program does not require a high school diploma or the equivalent. Students that are home-schooled will be considered for admission on the same basis as public school students (see Home School Applicants).

The faculty recommend that applicants from the U.S.A. seeking a degree complete the following courses in high school: four years of English, three years of college preparatory mathematics, three years of social science, three years of science (preferably laboratory science), and two years of a foreign language. Applicants are also advised to complete courses which develop computer literacy and keyboarding efficiency. International applicants are advised to complete a university-preparatory secondary school curriculum and earn a completion certificate or diploma that leads to university admission in the country where they study and live. The curriculum should include the specific courses suggested for U.S. applicants.

For further information and procedures, see Making Application.

Transfer Students

Students transferring from institutions of higher learning are admitted to such standing as is reasonable in terms of their past coursework. A transfer applicant may not disregard previous college and university records and must have all transcripts submitted to the Admissions Office. For regulations on the acceptability of credit for transfer, see Transfer of Credit.

Transfer students seeking admission to diploma or degree programs must meet the university placement test requirement. There is no placement test requirement for a certificate program.

For further information and procedures, see Making Application.

Post-baccalaureate Students

Applicants for post-baccalaureate admission must meet the following requirements:

    • have completed a four-year college or university course of study and holding an acceptable bachelor’s degree from an institution accredited by a regional accrediting association, or have completed equivalent academic preparation as determined by the University;

    • be in good academic standing at the last college or university attended;

    • show evidence of the professional, personal, scholastic, and other qualities necessary for successful post-baccalaureate study;

    • show evidence of sound moral character and support of the University’s mission; and

    • if an international applicant, demonstrate proficiency in the English language. See TOEFL.

Inaccurate Information

All documentation submitted by applicants must be accurate to the best of their knowledge. Inaccurate and/or misleading information are grounds for denial of admission or dismissal from the University.

Provisional Admission

An applicant applying too late to complete pre-entrance requirements may be permitted to enter the University on a provisional basis as a non-matriculated student. A student admitted provisionally must complete all admission requirements within the first semester of attendance.

Notification of Admissions Decision

The University adheres to a practice of selective admissions. The Admissions Committee reviews each completed application and reports its decision to the applicant. Application forms, transcripts and application fees are not returnable.
