Freshman Application Procedure

Grand View has a personalized admission and enrollment policy. Consideration may be given to: class rank and test scores; quality of high school curriculum completed; co-curricular achievement; and maturity and seriousness of purpose as displayed through church, community, school, work, and family activities.

Admission to a particular program or major may be governed by different standards. If requirements do differ, they are listed in the section of the catalog where that program is described. Admission to Grand View is granted on a rolling basis.

If you are a first-time freshman student:

1. Complete an application for admission.
Applications can be completed online. 

2. Request that official high school transcripts be sent to the Admissions Office.
An official General Education Development (G.E.D.) Certificate may be used in the absence of a high school diploma.

3. Submit ACT or SAT scores.
At the time of the test, students should request that a record of their scores be sent to Grand View. Our ACT code is 1316; our SAT code is 6251.
