A traditional-age student should contact the Office of Admissions. Applicants should also know that orientation, cultural activity, developmental, and physical education activity courses are not calculated into the grade average. An applicant having fewer than 30 semester hours of transferable college credit at the time of application must also meet freshman admission requirements, including submitting scores on the Scholastic Assessment Test or the American College Test. Although an admissions conference is generally not required, in some instances the admissions staff, as a means of better determining an applicant's readiness for the curriculum at Meredith or for advisory purposes, may request a conference with her. When admission is granted before the end of a term in which the applicant is enrolled, her admission is contingent upon satisfactory completion of her course of study.
Admission is always contingent upon receipt of a complete medical report.
This office provides individual advising and enrollment assistance for the woman who may have been out of the academic environment for some time, and the program does not require the student to file scores on the Scholastic Assessment Test. The College will consider students who apply as on-campus residents after February 15 if residence space is available. Applications from commuting students can usually be considered into the summer months. A student seeking entrance to the spring semester should file her transfer application and fee by December 1. The admissions office provides forms for the references to use in providing recommendations.
