Academically qualified high school seniors are invited after applying for admission and are reviewed on an individual basis.
Standardized test scores are optional but recommended. International applicants may be required to submit proof of English proficiency. Applicants should note that students accepted in previous years had an average composite 30-plus ACT or an average total 1330-plus SAT.
Roadmaps are recommended semester-by-semester plans of study for programs and assume full-time enrollment unless otherwise noted.
Courses and milestones designated as critical (marked with !) must be completed in the semester listed to ensure a timely graduation. Transfer credit may change the roadmap.
This roadmap should not be used in the place of regular academic advising appointments. All students are encouraged to meet with their advisor/mentor each semester. Requirements, course availability and sequencing are subject to change.
