💡 What Does "Selective Admission" Mean?

Selective admission programs have a limited number of available seats and a competitive applicant pool. This means that while many students may meet the minimum qualifications, not all qualified applicants can be offered admission.

Programs review applicants using criteria such as GPA, prerequisite coursework, Testing Scores (like ACT, Accuplacer, or TEAS), and other program-specific requirements. Applicants are then ranked according to the established selection process.

Our best advice? Start early, stay organized, and make sure all requirements are completed and all documents have been uploaded before the deadline.

We're cheering you on every step of the way! 🎉- The Selective Admissions Team
