ADMISSION AND ENROLLMENT
The application process at LaGrange College is selective and designed
to carefully consider each candidate’s personal qualities and readiness
for college. We seek applicants who have the potential to be successful
academically and who will contribute to our community in meaningful
ways. We will evaluate the application, transcript(s), course selection,
SAT or ACT scores (if required), essay and recommendation when
making our decision. An admission counselor will assist each
prospective student throughout the application and enrollment process.
We encourage prospective students to visit campus for a personal
interview as part of the application process.
Students interested in attending LaGrange College must submit an
application for admission. March 1 is the preferred deadline for best
consideration for admission, financial aid, and housing for the fall
semester. Students interested in scholarship consideration should apply
before January 1 or the published deadline for the scholarship,
whichever is earlier. Students applying for admission to the January or
Summer terms should submit the application and supporting documents
at least one month prior to the beginning of the term for which
admission is desired.
APPLYING FOR ADMISSION
Applicants for First-year admission must submit the following items:
the application form, application fee, official high school transcripts,
official SAT or ACT scores, essay and recommendation. The office of
admission reserves the right to request or waive documentation as
appropriate.
Applicants who have attended a college or university following high
school graduation must submit the following items: application form,
fee, college or university transcripts, essay, and recommendation. If the
applicant has completed fewer than 30 semester hours or 40 quarter
hours of college level work, an ACT or SAT score and high school
transcripts will also be required.
To be considered an official document, a transcript should be submitted
directly to LaGrange College in a sealed envelope from the sending
institution. Institutional records personally delivered to LaGrange
College by a student must also be in a sealed envelope to be considered
official. Photocopies, faxes, or transcripts in unsealed envelopes
are not considered official.
