2024-2025 Catalog

 

First-year Admission

Applications are accepted throughout the senior year of high school. The application and high school transcript with a minimum of 6 completed semesters, are necessary for an admission decision. In some cases, test scores (SAT or ACT), an essay and recommendation are required. A tuition deposit is required prior to registering for classes and is fully refundable until May 1.

An admission decision may be made before the end of the student's high school career if an official high school transcript has been provided. In this event a final high school transcript or a certification of graduation will be required before the student may begin classes at IWU.

Viable candidates for admission should have a minimum of each of the following: 8 credits in language arts (equivalent to 4 years); 6-8 credits in mathematics (equivalent to 3-4 years); 6 credits in science (equivalent to 3 years); 6 credits in social studies (equivalent to 3 years); 4 credits in foreign language (equivalent to 2 years); 2 credits in health, physical education, safety (equivalent to 1 year); and 4-6 credits from other courses offered (equivalent to 2-3 years). Applicants who do not meet the requirements for regular admission may request special consideration.

Completed applications with a high school GPA or test score (if required) below minimum thresholds may be admitted into the Foundations program. Supplemental materials or counselor interview may be requested of the student by the Office of Admissions.

Individuals not receiving a high school diploma must take either the Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC) or the General Education Development Exam (GED) or HiSET (High School Equivalency Test) and achieve satisfactory scores to be considered for admission.
