In order to facilitate the evaluation of a home-schooled applicant’s candidacy, the student must submit the following items, in addition, to the admission requirements listed above. Home-schooled students must submit all syllabi, reading lists, and grading records. If the student is pursuing a specific independent study course, the student should submit all information on the requirements for this course. In addition, the student is required to submit the SAT Reasoning or ACT scores as well as three SAT II test scores. We will review the application carefully, and if more information is required, the student may be sent a request to come to campus for further testing.
To be eligible to attend Regis College, a student must be graduating from an accredited secondary school and have a college preparatory background. International students who do not speak English as their first language are expected to show their proficiency in English (a minimum of 79 (internet-based)/213 (computer-based)/550 (paper-based) is accepted on the TOEFL). Please note, international transcripts must be translated into English. Please see the Application Checklist on page 1 for assistance with submitting a complete application.
Transfer students for the fall or spring semester must be in good academic standing at an
accredited institution, have a cumulative grade point average of at least a 2.0 on the Regis College scale, and not be on academic or disciplinary probation. All college-level and advanced placement courses will be considered for transfer credit. A maximum of 20 courses taken at any accredited college or university may be accepted for transfer credit. Course credit evaluations are typically sent with the letter of acceptance, informing students of their anticipated entering class status. Nursing students should inquire about specific requirements. Please see the Application Checklist on page 1 for assistance with submitting a complete application.
