Apply for AdmissionThe first official step to becoming a U student is applying for admission. This is a fairly easy step that takes about 15 minutes to complete. Simply complete the online application, pay the application fee, and request to have your ACT or SAT scores and transcripts sent to the Admissions office. Furthermore, you cannot complete some of the other steps on the road to becoming a U student without first applying for admission (ex. being considered for scholarships) and being admitted (ex. applying for housing, being considered for federal financial aid, or registering for orientation). So don’t delay, get your admission application in.
