All students are required to complete a Proficiency Profile exam before or within their first trimester at Adventist University. This is a test of basic knowledge that will be repeated before graduation and will not affect a student’s GPA. A hold will be placed on all students that have not taken this exam after the drop/add period in their first term.
It is understood that timely information regarding an applicant’s admission status is very important. The following steps are used in processing the application paperwork once it has been received.
Applicants are required to use the online application found at http://www.adu.edu/apply. Once an application is started, the applicant’s ADU ID number (also referred to as the username) will be emailed to him or her and he or she will create a password at the same time. These credentials should be used to log in to http://my.adu.edu.
During the application process, prospective students are encouraged to contact their Campus Enrollment Counselor (407-303-7742) for information regarding processes and questions about becoming an Adventist University student. Email is the primary form of communication between applicants and Campus Enrollment Counselors during the application process. Applicants will not be considered for General Studies admission until all application materials have been received.
Applicants who are not U.S. citizens must provide proof of legal residency.
Applicants will not be considered for General Studies admission until all application materials have been received. Completed files will be reviewed by the Undergraduate General Studies Admission Committee. Students will be notified of the Committee’s decision by email. Admission status is available at http://my.adu.edu.
Admission to the University allows a student to take general education courses. Once students are admitted to General Studies, they will be eligible to apply to a program through their student page at http://my.adu.edu. Students should check their student page to ensure their file is complete and ready for consideration by the specific program(s) to which they are applying.
