You can apply online using »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË’s online application — or apply using the Common Application.

If you submit »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË’s early application, you will not be required to attend »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË or withdraw any other applications you may have with other higher education institutions. Our early application program is available only for the convenience of our prospective students! Only those students applying as an Early Decision candidate are required to enroll if admitted.

That’s no problem! On average, about 10 percent of incoming freshmen at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË are undeclared majors, and even more will decide to switch their majors to a more specific area of study after or during their freshman year. With 70+ programs to choose from, there are plenty of programs to explore and classes to experience.

A BA degree program offers undergraduates with a holistic education, requiring fewer credits that are directly related to the chosen major. With the BA, there is a concentration on the humanities and social sciences. A BS degree program is restricted to taking credits that are particular to the chosen field, providing an emphasis on details and the analytical understanding of the subject. Although these degrees hone different strengths, academically, they are equally valued.

Although it is encouraged that you come and speak with your admissions counselor so we can get a better idea of your personality and overall academic goals, it is not a requirement to interview.
