Admission by Examination

Prospective candidates who have not completed high school, have a diploma from a nonaccredited high school, or have been home schooled, may apply for admission by examination. This involves taking the SAT I or ACT and three SAT II subject tests of the College Board, including English and mathematics. The third examination may be taken in any subject except in the case of candidates applying to the School of Engineering, the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, or the College of Nursing, whose third subject examination must be in a science.

Students who do not have the required college preparatory courses may be admitted on the basis of scores on the relevant SAT II subject tests, or they may be required to make up specific subject deficiencies. Questions about admission by examination may be directed to the admissions office.

Applicants who have earned a GED generally are asked to apply for admission by examination. However, for exceptionally strong candidates, the SAT II subject tests may be waived by the appropriate admission committee.
