Admissions Requirements

Admissions Requirements

HPU understands that each student has a unique academic history and individual talents. This is why we take a holistic approach to reviewing applications, and consider all the information provided on your application to make an admissions decision.  

 

1. Academic Transcripts

  • Unofficial transcripts can be accepted for admissions purposes, however official transcripts must be received prior to a student's registration for classes.
  • Transcripts must be submitted with English translation.
  • Transcripts should list all courses taken in high school and should include grades/scores for each subject.
  • Students who have taken Advanced Placement Examinations (AP) of the College Board or theInternational Baccalaureate (IB) Program should have their score results sent directly to the Office of International AdmissionsThese results will be evaluated not only for admission but also for proper advanced standing and/or credit from HPU.

2. Proof of English Language Proficiency
