Clarion University of Pennsylvania Undergraduate Admission & Requirements

- High school curriculum
- Grade-point average
- SAT and/or ACT test scores*
- Letters of recommendation & essay (optional)
TEST OPTIONAL
- Clarion is now reviewing students under a SAT/ACT test optional admission policy if students have a 2.5 GPA or higher. GPA does not automatically guarantee admission to the university. High school curriculum, trends in grades and rigor of coursework will be reviewed and considered for admission. Students not applying as test optional can send their standardized test scores, along with their transcripts and any other additional materials (i.e. essays, recommendation letters, etc) to the admissions office. During review of your application, the Clarion University admissions team will request additional materials (essay, interview, etc), if needed.
- The university now offers both merit and need-based scholarships under a test optional policy. Students will automatically be considered for merit scholarships upon admission to the university based upon their GPA. If SAT and/or ACTs are available, we do encourage students to submit them, however, they are not required.
