Admission Requirements

The University considers applications for admission on a rolling basis. The Admission Committee reviews applications as soon as supporting documents have been received. Applicants are encouraged to apply at least three (3) weeks prior to quarter for which they wish to enroll. While the Office of Admission makes every attempt to accommodate students who apply at any time, applications completed less than one week prior to the beginning of a term may not be reviewed before courses begin.
