How to apply: The admissions process
The basic steps to apply are the same for most students. Once you have applied, we will review your application by considering your academic achievements, school activities, and personal qualities — including your motivation to learn. You can expect to receive a decision through email four to 10 weeks after you submit your complete application.
When to apply
You can submit your application any time of year; however, to ensure it is processed in a timely manner, be sure to
submit your application
at least two terms before your planned start term. We encourage all students to start in the fall, which would mean your best time frame for applying would be between October and April previous to the fall you plan to attend.
Enhance your education
Apply as a first-year undergraduate if you plan to study on-campus for a bachelor's degree or certificate program and have a high school diploma or GED.
