Application Deadlines

The University operates on a rolling admission basis. The University may have to close admissions when no further space for students is available. Consequently, applicants from high school should apply in the fall or early winter of the senior year. Beginning on September 15, the admissions office will start accepting applications for the fall semester of the following year.

Admission for the spring semester is granted on a space-available basis. Applications will be considered if received no later than December 1 for the subsequent spring semester. The University does accept applications from first-year students who would like to begin in the spring semester.

Please be sure that all forms included with this application are completed and signed.
