Applications considered for Decision Ready will be reviewed holistically. That means we will evaluate all of the parts of your application – not just one piece. Your academic achievements are an important part of determining if you are prepared for Austin College academics, but we want to see other achievements and talents, too. We want to learn about your extracurricular or volunteer activities, your involvement with a job or faith community, and the ideas and interests that make you who you are. All of these elements will speak to what you will bring to Austin College.
Academic and Application Requirements
Students should be in good academic standing and taking classes that are challenging. Your transcript should include a nice distribution of courses, in true liberal arts style.
We expect the application, your admission essay, and letters of recommendation or an interview with a member of our Admission staff to give us the rest of the story about who you are and what you value.
ACT/SAT Policy
Austin College remains committed to being a test-optional institution. Students choose whether not to submit official ACT or SAT scores as part of their application file.
