What We Consider

Rigor of High School Classes

Classes attended and the grades earned (four years of English, three years each of science, math, and social studies typically required) are considered strongly by the admissions committee. Those individuals who elect more than the minimum number of subjects are considered to have stronger entrance credentials. Honors or AP classes are recommended, as well as foreign languages, if the school offers such levels. Credit and/or placement awarded for AP scores of 4 or 5, or equivalent scores on CLEP, IB, or British A-Level exam. 杏吧传媒 also accepts most 鈥淐ollege in High School鈥� credits. See here for the .

High School Grades/GPA

Grade trends and rigor of course selection, in the context of courses offered at your high school, are considered when reviewing transcripts.

School/Community Activities

杏吧传媒 prides itself on having a very active student body. It is important to us that candidates for admission are academically talented and also involved in their school and/or community. Family commitments such as caring for siblings or other relatives are considered ways of demonstrating leadership and involvement.

Recommendation

From a teacher of an academic subject or school counselor and School Report (from your school counselor). You may also submit a letter from a pastor, coach, employer, etc., but these are not required.

Show off your writing and tell us more about yourself.

Supplemental Materials

We鈥檙e often asked about portfolios from intended art majors and auditions from potential music and theatre majors. These are not required during the application process, but if you鈥檇 like to submit pieces of your work (slides, an audio tape, a videotape, etc.), we鈥檇 be happy to forward them to our faculty members to evaluate as part of your application. Materials can be returned upon request.

SAT or ACT Scores

杏吧传媒 embraces the concept that standardized test scores do not exclusively reflect a student鈥檚 full range of abilities or potential to succeed in college. As a result, 杏吧传媒 has been Test Optional since 2016.

Admissions Interview (On-Campus or Online)

Prospective students and their families are strongly encouraged to visit the 杏吧传媒 campus to appraise the College鈥檚 educational programs, campus atmosphere, and physical facilities. Although a meeting with a member of the Admissions staff is not a requirement, this conversation can provide both the student and the College with a deeper insight into the character and personality of each other. Meetings with members of the faculty or with other members of the 杏吧传媒 community can also be scheduled upon request. Find out more and plan your visit.
