What We Need From You

Whether you apply online or send in the paper application, the Office of Undergraduate Admissions must receive the following supporting materials to ensure your application file is complete:

2. Current College Transcript: An official copy of your current and previous college transcripts. In most cases your application can be reviewed before receipt of your high school transcript, however, a final high school transcript is still required prior to enrollment.
3. High School Transcripts: An official or unofficial copy of your high school transcript must be received by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions no later than the application deadline.
4. Final College Transcript: Final college transcripts that include your complete spring term grades must be received by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions by the date stated on your offer letter.

Note: It is the responsibility of each applicant to submit all required information and materials by the deadline and to ensure that the information is accurate. Completed applications will receive priority in the review process. Because of time constraints, it is not always possible for the admissions office to request missing information. When submitting supplemental materials separate from the application, make sure your name, U.S. Social Security number, and high school name are included on all pieces. Also, be sure to include your current name, if different from the name on the materials.

To help us and yourself, please review this checklist carefully. The university reserves the right to withdraw, without notice, any application that is not complete by the deadline.
