816-235-1121 umkc.edu/admissions/veterans Provisional AdmissionApplicants who do not meet the standards for regular admission may be considered for provisional admission to UMKC. If admitted, students may be required to participate in an academic support program as a condition of their admission. Supporting documentation may be requested.
GED High School Equivalency
Students can apply for admission based on the General Educational Development or High School Equivalency tests. The GED or HiSET scores must be passing in each area. GED or HiSET applicants also must submit an ACT composite score of at least 24. Students not meeting these criteria may be considered for provisional admission (see above) or mature adult admission (see below).
Mature Adult
Students who graduated from high school more than five years prior and have fewer than 24 transferable college credits may qualify for mature adult admission consideration. These students must submit high school transcripts or GED or HiSET, any college transcripts, ACT/SAT test results or an ACT test waiver. Students should contact the Office of Admissions to obtain the ACT test waiver petition if needed.
Dual High School/University Enrollment
High school students can be admitted in a special student category and take college courses concurrently with high school courses. Students must submit a special application for admission available at umkc.edu/apply/special.asp. Students
are admitted based on academic standards that exceed those required for admission from high school. Admissions are limited and are subject to the space available in, and completion of prerequisites for, the desired course or courses.
Home-Schooled Graduates
Graduates of home-school programs are required to complete the 17-unit core college-preparatory curriculum (see page 4) and have a 24 ACT or 1090 SAT score for regular admission to UMKC. Students not meeting these criteria may be considered for provisional admission.
Students Graduating Early From High School
High school students may be admitted before they graduate from high school if they have completed all the requirements for graduation from high school but will not receive a diploma until their class graduates. Eligibility for admission is determined by the procedures established for regular admission from high school. A high school counselor or principal must certify that all graduation
requirements have been met. Students are admitted on an individual basis. The following information also is required: application for admission, high school transcript and letter of approval from a high school principal or counselor.
COMPETITIVE ADMISSION
Admission to some academic programs is competitive, and admission to UMKC does not guarantee admission to a desired major. Students who are not admissible to these programs but who meet minimum criteria may be admitted to University College.MISSOuRI ENhANCED
ADMISSION
Missouri residents who graduate in the top 10 percent of their class and meet the 17-unit requirements (see page 4) are admissible regardless of ACT/SAT score. Those who graduate from a high school that does not rank students must have a 3.5 GPA in the 17 core curriculum classes.
ADDITIONAL FACTORS
CONSIDERED FOR ADMISSION
The university seeks a heterogeneous student body reflecting diversity of race, ethnicity, age and geography (including international students). Factors given prime consideration for admission to undergraduate study are applicants’ previous academic success and the quality of records presented. Applicants who do not meet criteria set forth may be considered for admission by appealing and stating:>> The number and scope of college preparatory
courses
>> Evidence of marked improvement over time in
high school academic record
>> Extensive cocurricular activities involving
school, community or church
>> Outstanding talent or abilities >> Significant work experience or family

TRANSFER CRITERIA
uMKC values your previous college experience
and strives to make the transition as easy as possible.
Applicants with 24 or more hours of transferable college-level coursework need an overall 2.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale in all coursework attempted at previous institutions. UMKC may recalculate GPAs as needed.
Applicants must have official transcripts from each college or university attended sent to the Office of Admissions before their application can be considered. If a student does not have 24 hours of transferable college-level coursework, admission is determined by including freshman admissions criteria. Some admissions decisions are made by the academic unit/department. Students who are not admissible to these programs but who meet minimum criteria for admission may be admitted to University College.
