First Year students are invited to apply and complete EMU's streamlined application process. Beginning in March 2020, EMU moved to a test-blind admissions process.

If more information is needed, your admissions counselor will reach out to you and let you know about the additional steps. Students may still submit SAT/ACT scores for consideration in the application review process through the test source, Common Application, or a school counseling office.
