Admissions Procedures

Prospective students are welcomed and encouraged to visit the campus. Appointments for interviews should be made in advance. An application packet may be obtained by writing to: Allegheny Wesleyan College, 2161 Woodsdale Road, Salem, OH 44460. Application forms should be completed and returned as soon as possible prior to the date of intended enrollment. Students find it advantageous to apply at the end of their junior year of high school or early in their senior year. They should request that their school send to the Registrar's Office a complete record of the ninth, tenth, and eleventh grades along with a statement of rank in junior class.
For specific questions related to home schooling, please contact the Academic Dean.

New Students

After the records are completed and processed, the applicant will be notified if acceptance has been granted.
A final transcript of high school work showing date of graduation and, in the case of the transfer student, a transcript of all work taken in other colleges should be sent to the College. Transcripts submitted for evaluation become the property of the College.

Transfer Students

A preliminary review of the transfer of credits for a matriculating applicant will be done so as to assure that courses will not be repeated. After satisfactorily completing one semester of study, credits that transfer for courses which apply to the student's chosen degree program and reflect a grade of "C" or above will be placed on the transcript. This guideline applies to colleges accredited by CHEA and recognized associates.
Veterans will receive credit, as recommended by the American Council of Education, for courses that are applicable to the curriculum the student wishes to pursue at Allegheny Wesleyan College.
To qualify for graduation, transfer students must complete a minimum of twenty-four semester hour credits at Allegheny Wesleyan College.

International Student Admissions

AWC welcomes international students who manifest a purpose and goal in their lives. The college has had a number of international students who have completed their studies here on the campus. Such students have been recommended by missionaries who are acquainted both with AWC and the prospective student.

International students contemplating enrollment are directed to contact the Office of the Director of International Student Affairs.
