Recommendations should address the applicant’s level of commitment, as well as attributes such as creativity, initiative, motivation, character and academic achievement, to aid in assessing the applicant’s reasonable potential for success as a student at SCAD. Recommendations may not come from friends or family members except in the case of a teacher-parent.


3. Statement of purpose. The statement should be no more than 500 words in length and should give an overview of the applicant’s academic and personal experience, describing preparation for and commitment to further study at SCAD, as well as educational and professional goals and aspirations.


4. Résumé/list of achievements and awards. 5. Personal or telephone interview. (May be scheduled by contacting the admission department.)


Omitting Senior Year Applicants are encouraged to complete high school or earn a certificate of General Educational Development before entering SCAD. Exceptions to the general rules of admission may be made for applicants of unusual motivation and ability. Such an applicant may be admitted at the end of the junior year in high school, omitting the senior year, if he or she has a grade point average of 3.5 or above through grade 11, if SAT or ACT scores are above the national average, and if the applicant’s counselor and teacher recommend admission. Juniors who wish to be considered for full-time admission must follow the application requirements for first-time freshmen and request junior admission on the application form. In order to be accepted for admission, the applicant must demonstrate an advanced level of maturity, leadership and responsibility. Junior applicants who wish to apply for federal financial aid or be considered for institutional scholarships should contact the admission department.


Joint Enrollment A high school student 16 years of age or older who wishes to be admitted for joint enrollment on a part-time basis during the junior or senior year must follow the application requirements for first-time freshmen and must be recommended for joint enrollment by a counselor and a teacher. In addition, joint enrollment applicants should meet or exceed normal undergraduate admission requirements. Joint enrollment is on a space-available basis. Courses are


not intended to fulfill high school graduation requirements; they do carry college-level credit and may be used in fulfillment of a certificate or degree program if the student applies and is accepted as a degree-seeking student. Joint enrollment students who wish to be considered for scholarships should request this on the application. They are not eligible for federal or state financial aid and may not reside in university housing while joint enrolled. Joint enrollment students who have taken courses on a nondegree-seeking basis and who wish to become degree seeking must contact the admission office before progressing in further coursework.


UNDERGRADUATE TRANSFER APPLICANTS


1. Completed application for admission. Any student who previously applied and was reviewed for first-time freshman admission to SCAD and then attended another college or university must re-apply as a transfer student and submit all materials required to be reviewed for transfer admission and scholarship opportunities.


2. Nonrefundable application fee. US $35 if submitted online; US $70 if submitted in paper form.


3. Official transcript from each col lege or university attended. All transcripts/mark sheets must be in English or accompanied by a certified English translation. If the number of college or university credits earned is insufficient for evaluating performance, the applicant also may be required to submit a diploma from a United States high school* and SAT or ACT** scores. (To have these scores sent directly to SCAD, applicants should use SAT code 5631 or ACT code 0855 on the test forms. SAT or ACT scores are not required of international applicants or of applicants who have been out of high school for at least two years.)


4. Demonstration of English proficiency for students whose first language is not English.***


5. Additionally, if applicable, any other documents or materials required to obtain a student visa.****


Exceptions to the general rules of admission may be made for applicants of unusual motivation and ability. Application materials cannot be returned. * A certificate of General Educational Development from the American Council of Education is considered equivalent to a diploma from a U.S. high school. For student applicants from countries other than the United States, SCAD uses the standards established by the National Association of Foreign Student Advisors and the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers to determine the equivalent academic achievement. For home-schooled applicants, an academic portfolio is also acceptable and may include, but is not limited to, the following:


• Verification that the home school has been recognized by the state of residence of the applicant.


• Detailed outline of the home-school curriculum, including subject areas studied, time spent on each discipline, and, if applicable, grades awarded. A home-school transcript may fulfill this requirement.


• Writing sample that is academic in nature, but not necessarily a graded assignment or one used for coursework.


• Résumé of classes taken outside the home. If classes have been taken at a college or university, official transcripts are required.


** Architecture appl icants: Students applying to the professional architecture program must attain a minimum SAT math score of 540 or ACT math score of 23 in order to be granted regular acceptance. Otherwise qualified applicants to the professional architecture program who have not attained these scores or who are unable to demonstrate an aptitude for the study of mathematics and science may be admitted to the professional architecture program on a provisional basis. One condition stipulates that the student must complete MATH 101 with a grade of 2.0 or higher and complete MATH 201 and PHYS 201 with a grade of 2.0 or higher in order to pursue the professional architecture degree. The credit hours earned in MATH 101 may be applied as an elective toward credit hours required for the professional architecture degree.


*** English is the medium of instruction for all classes at SCAD. In addition to meeting or exceeding all other SCAD admission criteria, applicants whose first language is not English must demonstrate English proficiency by providing official minimum scores on one of the following:


1. Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) minimum scores: a. 550 on the paper-based test
