First-year

An application fee of $50 for Arizona residents, $80 for non-residents or waiver is required. Report coursework as reflected on your high school transcript(s). Students who attend a regionally accredited high school, rank in the top 25 % of their class, or earn an unweighted GPA of 3.0 in core coursework qualify for assured admission. SAT/ACT scores are not required for admission, merit scholarship eligibility, or acceptance to selective programs. Optionally submitted scores must be sent directly from the testing agency and may be used in class placement or to fulfill Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) course competencies. Learn more.

Students under the age of 22 at the start of their desired term must also have an unweighted high school GPA of 2.5 and meet the Arizona Board of Regents course competency requirements. For all others admission requires 24+ transferable post-high school college credits with a minimum 2.0 GPA. Official copies of all college transcripts are required.
