High Point University seeks applicants who demonstrate exceptional scholarship, outstanding achievement, good citizenship and strong leadership.

Please know that we desire to get to know those whom we are investing our future into. While it is not mandatory, we do strongly recommend a campus visit during your student’s senior year. Campus visits are a great way for your student and your family to experience our remarkable campus, meet our extraordinary students and dynamic professors, sit in on a class and speak with your child’s admissions counselor.

Admissions decisions are based on the following:

• A student’s academic performance and achievement
• The academic rigor of these classes and your school
• Scores achieved on either the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT)*
• A student’s character and past performance
• A student’s demonstrated leadership
• The written essay on our application
• The School Report Form
• Letter of Recommendation from teachers or counselors
• Demonstrated interest in attending High Point University

*SAT or ACT scores are only required if a student wishes to be considered for the Presidential Scholars Program and/or Honors Scholar Program

A student’s application for admission to High Point University is also the application for scholarships. We believe that students’ unwavering commitment to excellence throughout their high school careers surpasses the need for an additional essay in order to be considered for scholarships. To be fully considered for all awards, students should apply by the Early Action application deadline.

Priority Deadline: November 15
