Prospective students, including undergraduate, transfer and international students, will find relevant and timely information about admissions requirements, deadlines, tours of campus, orientation, tuition and fees, scholarships and other resources on the admissions website. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions receives approximately 25,000 applications each fall semester for first-year and transfer students. Of the approximately 11,600 first-year students admitted each fall, about 5,300 enroll.
