The applicant is reviewed for general college admission.  (See General Studies Admission section). Once the applicant is admitted to the University with regular or early acceptance status, he or she may be considered for admission to a program.

Each degree or certificate program has admission requirements beyond those for general studies admission. These are listed in each program section in this Bulletin. These admission requirements may include: an essay explaining the applicant’s interest in attending ADU and the reason for choosing a particular field of study, an entrance exam, or additional recommendations. The Master of Science in Nurse Anesthesia degree requires additional materials. Please refer to the Graduate section of the Academic Bulletin for more information.

Once all requirements have been satisfied, the applicant’s file is considered complete and will be taken to the appropriate program admission committee for consideration. It is the student’s responsibility to follow up on the status of his or her application.

Please refer to program application deadlines in the Admission Information section.
