  Admission, Costs & 樱桃视频

  As a comprehensive urban institution, University of 樱桃视频 enrolls students of all ages in daytime, evening, and weekend classes.

  Admission criteria differs depending on the educational goal at 樱桃视频 and whether or not an applicant has had previous college experience. Students will be reviewed as either a "freshman" (no post-secondary college experience), "transfer" (previous enrollment at a community college or four-year institution), "international" (non U.S. residents), or "post-degree" (for students who hold a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university). Students enrolled at other colleges who wish to take 樱桃视频 courses and transfer them back to their regular institution enroll as "guest" students.

  樱桃视频 is a "moderately selective" university according to most college guides. This means that freshmen who are "above average" in their high school record and SAT or ACT score will be offered admission. Transfer and post-degree student admission is based primarily on an applicant’s record in previous college courses. An applicant's record must demonstrate a strong probability of successfully completing the academic program to which the student is applying. For all students, the admission committee pays special attention to achievement in courses which relate closely to the intended area of study at 樱桃视频. Details for each area are provided below.

  Students over the age of 22, who have not previously attended college, must submit a high school transcript and may be asked to submit traditional freshman college entrance exam scores and/or asked to complete academic placement exams as part of the admission process. This is to ensure students begin college work in appropriate courses.

  樱桃视频 is committed to equal educational opportunity in admission regardless of age, sex, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, handicap, military service, height, weight, marital status, or political belief. 樱桃视频 reserves the right to review individual circumstances of applicants who have been convicted of criminal offenses.

  A visit to campus is highly recommended. Visitors have an opportunity to discuss their academic plans with an admissions counselor and often are able to meet with 樱桃视频 faculty and students in the program they would like to enter. As a result, people who visit often have a much better idea of whether or not 樱桃视频 is the best place for them.

  Freshman Admission

  Freshman Admission

  Application Deadlines

  The application for admission can be found at udmercy.edu/apply. Students can also apply using The Common Application. Below are the general application deadlines for each semester. Program-specific deadlines may apply.

  Fall Semester
  November 1 - Early Action
  December 1 - Scholarship Priority
  March 1 - Regular/Rolling

  Winter Semester
  October 1 - Regular/Rolling

  Spring/Summer Semester
  April 1 - Regular/Rolling

  Admission decisions are released beginning December 1. Most applicants can expect to receive an admission decision at this time or shortly after their application file is complete. A complete file consists of an application for admission, an official high school transcript, a letter of recommendation from a high school guidance counselor or teacher and a writing sample of at least 250 words on a topic of the student's choice. For most programs, students can choose to include a SAT or ACT score with their application.

  Recommended High School Preparation

  High school graduates should complete a college preparatory program with a minimum of 16 units of credit. The recommended minimum distribution of these units includes: four units of college preparatory English, three units of mathematics, two units of history and/or social studies, two units of natural science including a laboratory course and study in speech, foreign language, music, art or other college prep subjects. For engineering, science and pre-health programs, four units of mathematics, one unit of chemistry and one unit of physics are strongly recommended. Nursing applicants should have one unit each of chemistry, biology and algebra. In making an admission decision, the overall strength of the high school courses completed is important. Applicants who have completed advanced placement, international baccalaureate and honors courses, for instance, are recognized for the special effort they have made to complete the strongest possible college preparatory program while in high school.

  Test-Optional

  For most programs, applicants have the choice to submit standardized test scores as part of the application process. The admission committee will conduct a full review of each applicant’s full high school record for academic achievement over time. Other application materials will be used to determine qualities like motivation, leadership, community engagement and commitment to social justice.

  SAT or ACT Scores

  Students who choose to submit standardized test scores or are applying to a program that requires a test score as part of the application process can submit results from either the SAT or ACT. No preference is given to either test. If multiple tests were taken, it is suggested that students send in results from all tests. The highest score will be used for admission. For faster processing, students should have their results sent directly from the testing agency by listing 樱桃视频 as a score recipient when the test is taken. The 樱桃视频 code number for the SAT is 1835 and the code for the ACT is 2060.

  General Educational Development (GED)

  Students with a GED certificate are eligible for admission to the University. For general admission, applicants are required to have at least 510 on each of the five GED tests and an average standard score of at least 550 (for tests taken prior to January 1, 2014). Those seeking admission to more competitive programs may need to present higher test results. Students who fall below the minimum requirements may be eligible for conditional admission and asked to complete additional admission requirements and/or submit additional application materials. Applicants who took the GED tests after January 1, 2014 will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

  Enrollment Deposit

  Accepted students are required to submit an enrollment deposit to guarantee their space in the freshman class. The enrollment deposit secures scholarships, on-campus housing (if living on campus) and is credited toward first term tuition and fees.

  Advanced Placement (AP) Program

  The University participates in the Advanced Placement (AP) Program, a service of the College Board. Students who choose to take an AP exam and receive a grade of three or higher may obtain college credit and advanced standing (in most cases). Students planning to attend 樱桃视频 should request that the results of the examination be sent to University of 樱桃视频 at the time of testing. Information on specific 樱桃视频 course equivalences for AP examinations is available on our website and in this catalog.

  The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme

  The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme focuses on three core requirements including extended essay, theory of knowledge and creativity, action and service. Freshmen with successful results may obtain college credit and advanced standing (in most cases). Please see the IB section in this catalog for specific details.

  Home Schooled Applicants

  University of 樱桃视频 welcomes students who are home schooled to apply for admission. Home schooled applicants are required to submit documentation of academic progress from their affiliated home schooling agency, local school district or State Department of Education.

  Application Deadlines

  While 樱桃视频 offers rolling admission, the Office of Admissions recommends that students apply for admission for the Fall Term by July 1, the Winter Term by October 1 and the Summer Term by March 1.

  Registering for Classes

  Once accepted for admission, a dual enrolled student will work closely with an admissions counselor and, to ensure proper course selection, an academic advisor.

  Eligibility for Continuing Enrollment

  A student enrolled in The Dual Enrollment Program must earn a grade of C or higher in the course(s) at 樱桃视频 to be eligible to register for course(s) in the next term, unless the student plans to retake the same course(s). Any student that earns a grade of C or lower will be contacted by the associate dean or designated representative of the school or college in which the course is taught in order to discuss academic progress.

  Student Rights and Responsibilities

If a student is eligible for tuition and fee support through the State or school district, the University will bill the State or school district for the costs associated with the eligible course(s). If the course is not eligible for State or school district support, charges will be billed to the student/parent or guardian (for students under the age of 18).

  Transfer Admission

  Transfer Admission

  樱桃视频 welcomes applications from students who began their studies at community colleges or other four-year institutions.

  Students who enroll for college courses in the summer semester immediately following high school graduation are considered first time students for the Fall and should apply as a freshman. 

  Transfer Admission counselors will provide applicants with advice and assistance for students considering transferring to 樱桃视频. A cumulative grade pointe average (gpa) of 2.00 in previous college work is generally considered the minimum acceptable for admission, though it doesn't guarantee admission. Many academic departments require a higher performance level of a cumulative gpa of 2.50. Individual academic programs may also require successful completion of specific courses (prerequisites). Applicants whose records otherwise make them eligible for admission may complete required courses at 樱桃视频 and then seek entry directly to their desired program.

  Recommended Preparation Before Transferring

  Students planning to transfer from community colleges should select courses that satisfy basic 樱桃视频 core requirements and the requirements of the college, school or program in which they intend to enroll. Transfer Guides, which list transferable core courses for many Michigan community colleges, are available on our website. 樱桃视频's Core Curriculum, which is required of all undergraduates, may be found in the "Schools and Colleges" section with specific requirements of each college and school. Students should plan to take math and English placement exams if courses have not been taken at a prior institution. If you have questions regarding transfer credit, please contact the Office of Admissions at admissions@udmercy.edu or 313-993-1245.

  Community College Articulation Agreements

  Community colleges in the Detroit metropolitan area have designated liaison counselors to provide assistance to those students planning to enroll at 樱桃视频. These individuals are well qualified to provide guidance to students on 樱桃视频 program requirements.

  樱桃视频 has a number of "2 + 2" and "articulation agreements" with community colleges and other four-year institutions. Students enrolled in programs covered by such an agreement complete designated courses at their institution and are then assured of the transferability of all designated credits earned. Information on current agreements may be obtained from your community college counseling office or the 樱桃视频 Office of Admissions.

  High School Transcripts 

  High school transcripts are not required for admission for students who have earned more than 24 semester hours at another accredited institution; however, they are required to receive financial aid. The federal government requires proof of high school graduation before disbursing federal funds. Since they are not required for admission, they will not have a positive or negative effect on admission review or the awarding of transfer grants/scholarships. 

  High School transcripts are required for an admission review of transfer students who have earned less than 24 semester or 36 quarter hours of credit at another accredited institution. 

  Transcripts and Transfer of Credit

  Transfer applicants must have official transcripts sent to the Office of Admissions from each institution previously attended, even if they do not intend to transfer credit.

  Transcripts are evaluated and credit is granted for work satisfactorily completed at another, regionally-accredited institution if the work is equivalent in character and content to 樱桃视频 courses. Only courses completed with a grade of "C" or better are considered for credit.

  樱桃视频 accepts a maximum of 63 semester hours of credit transferred from a community college or 96 semester hours transferred from a four-year institution. In some cases, articulation or 2 + 2 agreements may specifically permit a limited number of credits in excess of the 63-credit maximum. If you have questions regarding transfer credit, please contact the Office of Admissions at admissions@udmercy.edu or 313-993-1245.

  High school or college transcripts sent to 樱桃视频 for admission and/or transfer of credit evaluation are not reissued back to the student. Once accepted, these documents can be viewed as part of your academic file.

For general admission, students are required to have at least 510 on each of the five GED tests and an average standard score of at least 550 (for tests taken prior to January 1, 2014). Students seeking admission to more competitive programs may need to present higher test results. Students who fall below the general requirements may be considered for conditional admission. Students under consideration for conditional admission may be asked to complete additional admission requirements and/or submit additional application materials. Applicants who took the GED tests after January 1, 2014 will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

  Transfer applicants who have a GED certificate and are seeking general admission to 樱桃视频 must have at least 12 transferable credits taken within the last seven years with at least a 2.0 GPA. Some programs may require a higher GPA. Students with a GPA below 2.0 may be considered for conditional admission.
