Preparation of Application Materials
To seek admission to the university, you must file an official application for admission with the Office of
Admissions. If you need an application, write or visit the Admissions Office in The Benét House, 2500
Walton Way (10), Augusta, Georgia 30904-2200, or phone us at (706)737-1632 or (800)341-4373.
Applications and materials are free of charge.
The application and all supporting documents should be received by the Admissions Office no later than
30 days prior to the beginning of the semester in which you plan to enroll. Applications and documents
received after this deadline will be processed, however, no guarantee can be made for admission for that
semester. A $20.00 non-refundable application fee must accompany the application. A high school
candidate may submit an application for admission after the junior year is completed.
Because additional time is required for processing, international student applicants should apply at least
90 days prior to the beginning of the desired semester.
If you do not register in the semester for which you are admitted and wish to attend a later semester, you
should inform the Office of Admissions at least 30 days prior to the desired semester of entrance. If one
year has expired since the initial application and you have not yet attended, you must re-apply and re-
submit all supporting documents.
Required Documents: Undergraduates

hands of the applicant, such as student copy transcripts or letters, grade reports, diplomas, or
graduation lists are not official. The documents must be issued and mailed directly by the registrar of
the previous institution(s) in a sealed envelope. These documents become a part of the applicant's
permanent record and will not be returned. Candidates are considered when all required documents
have been received. Notification of acceptance is by mail. The Office of Admissions needs the following:
Official Application Form. A candidate seeking admission must file an official
undergraduate application for admission prior to the specified deadline. An application

candidate.
Application Fee ($20, Non-refundable). This processing fee is required from all
undergraduate applicants who have not previously enrolled at ASU.
