Freshman applicants should be on track to graduate, or should have graduated, from a commissioned Indiana high school, comparable out-of-state institution or an approved home school, successfully completing a college prep curriculum or earned a High School Equivalency Diploma (GED) or Core 40 Diploma.

We look for the following for direct Admissions into the university:

• Completion of a Core 40 with 2.8 accumulative GPA
