If you take the SAT or ACT multiple times, we will use the best score from one testing date to process your file.
If you received a GED, were home-schooled, attended a non-accredited high school or do not meet UHCL’s automatic or assured admissions criteria, you will be considered for admission through our Individual Review Process.
Individual Review
If you rank in the 3rd or 4th quartile of their high school class, who were home schooled or received a GED are required to submit the following information in addition to their application and SAT or ACT scores:
Essay or Personal Statement regarding your education and career goals.
Two letters of recommendation which address your academic ability and readiness for college level work. These letters must be from your high school counselor or teacher. If you are a GED or home-schooled applicant, you must present letters from individuals who can attest to your academic abilities and college readiness.
