Undergraduate Admissions Requirements

UHSP requires the completion of a high school diploma (or equivalent) prior to enrollment for all incoming students.

Guaranteed Undergraduate Admission

Incoming, first-time students are eligible for guaranteed admission into an undergraduate program if they have equal to or greater than a 3.0 cumulative GPA.

Additional Admissions Considerations

Students with a cumulative GPA below a 3.0 are still encouraged to apply, but additional materials may be requested to enhance your application. These include items such as:

• Updated transcripts
• A personal statement
• ACT/SAT scores (optional)
• Letters of recommendation

Should these materials be needed, your admissions representative will be in touch to guide you through submission and next steps.

Along with any supplemental materials provided, we will conduct a comprehensive review of your application and transcripts (official or unofficial) that considers the rigor of high school curriculum and core course (math and science) GPA.
