UNDERGRADUATE ADMISSION
Texas Wesleyan University welcomes students from a variety of educational, ethnic, and religious backgrounds and experiences. All applicants are reviewed on an individual basis, with emphasis placed on general academic performance and evidence of ability to accomplish college work.
The Committee on Admissions, Scholarships, and Financial Aid will annually evaluate the admission requirements and policies and present these, in addition to proposed changes and/or a report for the previous year’s admissions procedures, to the Academic Affairs committee for review.
Admission to Graduate Programs—Texas Wesleyan University offers admission to graduate programs in business, counseling, education, and nurse anesthesia leading to master's degrees and doctoral degrees. For additional information, see the Texas Wesleyan University Graduate Catalog published separately.
Admission Deadlines
Admission into Texas Wesleyan University is on a rolling basis. You may submit application at any time prior to the semester start date. The annual priority date for receipt of applications is December 15. Applications will only continue to be accepted after July 15 on a space availability basis.
Admission of Domestic Freshman Students
Students who will graduate or who have graduated from high school or its equivalent, and beyond, are invited to apply for undergraduate admission. Freshman students are those who have graduated or will graduate from high school, have completed or will complete a home schooling program, hold a General Education Development (GED) Diploma, or who have completed fewer than 12 credits of college work. In addition, high school students who gained college credits while attending high school are considered freshman applicants. Applicants who attend and graduate from an early college high school will be considered for admission and scholarships as a transfer student.
All applicants to the freshman class must submit the following to the Office of Admission:
1. Application for Admission—A completed application for admission. Forms may be obtained online from the Admissions page on the Texas Wesleyan University website, www.txwes.edu.
2. High School Transcript—An official high school transcript, official General Education Development Diploma results, or documented home school transcript. Official transcripts must be sent to Texas Wesleyan University directly from the institution or delivered in person via sealed envelope. The transcript must bear an official seal and/or signature. Acceptance to the University may be granted on the basis of an official transcript showing six semesters' work. However, a final high school transcript documenting graduation and the successful completion of any qualifying exams required by the state for graduation or a statement of explanation must be submitted prior to the beginning of the student's initial semester at Texas Wesleyan University.
