Admissions. Documents that have been faxed or that have been in the 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 application for admission prior to the specified deadline. An application may be obtained from the Office of Admissions and local high schools. Care should be taken to read the directions accompanying the application and provide all information requested. An incomplete application will cause delay and may be returned to the candidate.

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

Official Transcript(s) of Courses Completed: A freshman candidate should ask his or her guidance department to send an official copy of the secondary school record. A transfer candidate should ask the registrar from each accredited college attended to send an official transcript of grades (a separate transcript from each college). A holder of a GED certificate must request that an official score report be sent to the Augusta State University Admissions Office. Documents must be received by the Office of Admissions before the acceptance is final.

Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or the American College Testing Program (ACT) scores: A freshman candidate is required to submit SAT scores of the College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) or the ACT score of the American College Testing Program. A holder of the GED certificate is also required to submit SAT or ACT scores. A transfer candidate who has earned fewer than 30 semester hours (45 quarter hours) of transferable credit must also submit SAT or ACT results. The CEEB college code number assigned to Augusta State University is 5336. For information concerning test dates and centers, consult your high school or college guidance office.

PLEASE NOTE: ASU uses the re-centered scale of the SAT to determine whether
students meet the minimum admissions requirements. All original SAT scores received
will be converted to the re-centered scale.

Immunization: All new students enrolling in schools within the University System of Georgia are required to provide proof of immunization for mumps, measles, and rubella or to provide a valid reason for exemption. This documentation, including dates of all required immunizations and the signature and address of a health care provider, must be submitted to the appropriate admitting office prior to registration for classes. Certificate of Immunization forms are available in the Office of Admissions. [Failure to meet this requirement will prohibit registration for classes.]
