Freshman Applicants

Admission is based on a review of the high school record and official standardized test scores. The requirements for consideration are a minimum 2.5 high school grade point average or a minimum GED score of 500. A student entering Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University as a freshman must have completed the basic TOPS Core Curriculum with a minimum 2.5 GPA computed on core courses only.

Test Optional: Students applying with less than a 20ACT or 950 SAT may choose to apply test optional.
