Changes in Freshman Application Deadlines
New Dates and Admission Policies for Fall 2008 Applicants
Note: This policy does not apply to freshman students applying for a spot in the freshman class starting in January 2008. This policy also does not apply to transfer students.

† A complete application includes an application, official test scores (either SAT or ACT) and an official copy of the student’s high school transcript and may include additional information requested, upon submission of your application, by the Office of Admissions.
Applications that become complete after the Final Priority Notification deadline will be reviewed on a space-available basis.
Submission of an application for Early Notification admission is non-binding and applicants that are accepted to Appalachian State University have until May 1, 2008 to confirm their enrollment with an Advanced Nonrefundable Payment. Students may submit early decision applications and regular decision applications at other institutions.
Application for admission must be submitted and complete (including official SAT/ACT scores & high school transcript on file) on November 15, 2007 to be considered for any merit based scholarships available to our incoming freshman class. Some scholarships may require additional information, including essays, letters of recommendations and interviews.
Applicants who take the SAT or ACT in October or November and do not receive scores before November 15, 2007 will not be penalized or delayed in the evaluation of their application for Early Notification. This same policy applies to students applying for merit based scholarships.
