The second most important item would be standardized testing results followed by activities, community involvement and all the things that make up the student's life. Juniata seeks a broad student population base including a wide geographic and cultural representation from a variety of social and economic backgrounds. The College reserves the right to determine which applicants will be admitted. The selection of candidates is made without regard to race, sex, religion, creed, national origin, handicap, or ability to afford a private college education. Timing Candidates for freshman admission are encouraged to submit an application for admission any time following completion of the junior year in secondary school.
Students can choose one of two application deadlines.
Juniata offers Early Decision or Rolling Admission. Early Decision gives a student their admission decision, financial aid award, and scholarship information very early in their senior year. Rolling admission gives a student their admission decision within three to four weeks of the completion of their application process. The student is asked to complete Juniata's institutional aid form in order to receive an early financial aid award. The deposit is due 30 days after information on academic program, financial aid, and scholarship have been received by the student.
