Application information

First-year

First Year applicants are reviewed largely based on high school GPA in a college-prep curriculum, standardized test scores (if submitted), a personal recommendation, and a personal statement presenting your ability to effectively form and articulate thoughts in writing. We accept both SAT and the ACT scores, and also grant college credit for Advanced Placement test scores.

Transfer

Transfer applicants should have a minimum 2.75 transferable GPA and a preferred completion of 30 transferable units. If you have less than 30 units your final high school transcripts will also be used in the admission decision. Completion of freshman English (college level) with a grade of "C" or better as well as successful completion of intermediate algebra is required.
