La Verne seeks students who are creative, motivated, self-disciplined, committed to learning and eager to achieve academic excellence. Students who have graduated from high school may apply for admission to the undergraduate program.
Admission is granted on a competitive basis.
The Admissions Committee considers each applicant's academic record and evidence of English language proficiency as indicators of probable academic success. Aptitude tests, such as SAT and ACT, are also considered but are not required. The applicant's involvement in school and community affairs, leadership abilities, and unique skills and talents are also factors considered in the admissions decision. The Athens Campus follows a rolling admissions schedule, allowing students to commence their degree program at the beginning of the Fall, Winter or Spring trimester.
