Please review the following instructions carefully, as they are here to guide you through the process toward a complete and successful application.

There are two ways to apply for admission to Virginia Tech: online and using the traditional paper application. Virginia Tech expects all applicants to apply using the online application; however, if you are planning on using an official fee-waiver, you MUST apply using the paper application, and attach the fee-waiver to it upon submission.

You are a Freshman Applicant if you:   are a citizen or permanent resident of the U.S. meet the minimum graduation requirements from high school. have not attempted more than 12 hours at any college or university since graduating from high school. have never attended Virginia Tech as an undergraduate student.   If you do not meet these requirements, please select another option: Transfer International Non-Degree Returning Student

Applying Online

Our web application allows you to create a user account and define a password to access your application. You will be able to save your work and come back to it as often as you like until the application is completed. The application for Virginia In-State Tuition, or residency form, is included at the end of the application. Only students who think they qualify as Virginia residents need complete these pages.
