Admission
Undergraduate applicants complete a free online application and send an official high school transcript; admission is possible with at least six completed semesters of high school coursework. Students who took college courses, and transfer students, send official transcripts from every institution attended. First-year applicants can submit ACT, SAT or CLT scores; some may be admitted without them, but scores can strengthen the application and scholarship chances. Transfer students with fewer than 24 semester hours also submit test scores (waivable over age 25). Applicants are encouraged to file the FAFSA, the US federal student aid application (OBU school code 003164).
