Admission Categories

All applicants from Ohio must have graduated from an Ohio high school or received a GED. Applicants under 21 also must submit a College Prep Form, ACT or SAT results, and transcripts from any postsecondary coursework.

Out-of-state candidates will be admitted on the basis of their high school record and ACT or SAT test scores.

Students are admitted on one of three levels: Direct, Standard or General.
Direct admission is for those students with an outstanding record who know what program they want to enter and can meet its individual requirements. Students who are undecided on a major also may be admitted with Direct status.
Standard admission is granted to those who do not have the academic background to enroll directly into their school or program of choice
General admission are those with a 2.30 GPA or lower, or lower than a 16 ACT/650 SAT score. Generally admitted students are enrolled in a special program designed to help them overcome academic deficiencies and make the transition to college.
