P.S. "Test Optional" admission is now available to Business, Liberal Arts, and Music applicants!

Our research has shown that there is a group of applicants for whom the SAT or ACT may not be a fair predictor of academic success. Other than their standardized test scores, these students meet or exceed our average student profile. Test optional applicants must have a minimum cumulative high school GPA of 3.0 within a college preparatory curriculum to be considered for admission.  Visit here for additional information.
