First-Time Application Requirements

Applicants must submit the following materials to be reviewed for an admissions decision:

1. A completed application online by visiting keuka.edu/apply
2. A copy of their secondary school transcript or general equivalency diploma (GED); or Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC). Note: Applicants’ academic scholarship will be determined based on the secondary school cumulative GPA submitted during the application process.

Upon graduating from secondary school and before starting classes, accepted students must submit an official and final secondary school transcript, in addition to official transcripts from any institutions from which college credits were received.

In addition to the required application materials, the admissions committee also considers recommendations and evidence of participation and leadership in co-curricular activities, special talents, and community involvement. The challenge and scope of a candidate’s secondary school program curriculum are also factors in the decision process. Although not required, applicants are encouraged to submit optional measures (such as SAT/ACT scores) that best represent their talents and aptitudes as outlined in the application. Supplemental items such as college essays, personal statements, resumes, letters of recommendation, and standardized test scores are not required for admission to the College but will be reviewed if submitted to the Admissions Office.
