Departmental Admission Requirements for Incoming Students
Although the university does not require the ACT/SAT for admission, all engineering programs require freshman to take the ACT/SAT for direct admission into their programs. Students that do not take the ACT/SAT will be placed in Preparatory Engineering and will be evaluated for admission into the program after completing the specified bridge courses in the freshman year.
See University Admissions for Test Optional Details.
*Incoming International students need to show Math Placement Exam (ALEKS) results or ACT/SAT in addition to the listed requirements.
