University of Louisville

 

Greetings from the University of Louisville,

  • We have removed the essay requirement for any student applying for Fall 2021, with or without ACT/SAT scores. Learn more about UofL's ACT/SAT-optional admissions policy.  
  • UofL's J.B. Speed Speed School of Engineering has developed a pathway for direct admission without ACT/SAT scores. This pathway asks students to take the College Board's Accuplacer placement exam in person or remotely. Learn more.
  • UofL's School of Nursing has developed a pathway for direct admission without ACT/SAT scores. Students will need to take the College Board's Accuplacer placement exam for both mathematics and reading in person or remotely.
  • The University of Louisville has lowered the ACT/SAT criteria to apply for competitive scholarships and enhancements. Students who apply to UofL without ACT/SAT scores may also be eligible if they meet GPA requirements. Students can view their eligibility and next steps in their UofL Application Gateway as soon as they submit their application for admission.
  • The University Honors Program will no longer require ACT/SAT test scores for criteria to apply or be considered for the program.
  • The Brown Fellows Program and Grawemeyer Scholarship applications will now be open to students with 29 ACT and/or 1330 SAT (former criteria was 31 ACT and 1390 SAT.) The GPA criteria remains 3.5 or above.
  • Stay tuned for more updates concerning the role of test scores in scholarships and some competitive academic units.

Ways to explore UofL this fall! 

  • Academic Info Sessions from each of UofL's nine undergraduate academic units are available this October. These live virtual sessions introduce students to program curriculum, learning opportunities (both inside and outside of the classroom), faculty, and current students and alumni. Students also have the opportunity to ask questions and meet other prospective Cardinals. Registration is required.
  • We are continuing to offer both in-person visits and virtual experiences this fall. 
  • The Office of Admissions Cardinal Guides are hosting live, interactive campus tours on Instagram every Tuesday and Thursday at 3 pm Eastern. Join us at @uofladmissions. 

Please remind your students they may apply to UofL with our Take Flight application or the Common App. We're here to help, so please reach out to your personal admissions counselor at any time.

Go Cards!
