Application Process for Rowan University

Hey, I'm getting ready to submit my college applications and Rowan University is one of my top choices. Could someone walk me through their application process? Are there any tips on writing essays or meeting specific requirements?

Sure, I'd be more than happy to help!

Rowan University accepts the Common Application, Coalition Application, and Rowan University Application, which you can find on the university's website. To apply, you'll need to complete the application and submit your high school transcript. Rowan University does not require letters of recommendation, but you can send them if you feel they will enhance your application. The application requires you to write an essay and has optional questions you can choose to answer to give more insight into your experiences.

As you're starting on your essay, remember that writing from a personal perspective and focusing on self-reflection is crucial. Rather than just narrating a series of events or accomplishments, think about moments in your life that brought about a significant change in you. Always be specific and avoid using cliches. For instance, you could write about a specific project or experience that sparked your interest in your intended major, describing not only what happened but also why it was meaningful to you.

Rowan University is also test-optional, which means you don't have to submit an SAT or ACT score if you don't want to. If you feel your test scores don't accurately reflect your capabilities or potential to do well in college, you can choose not to submit them.

Lastly, don't stress too much! The college application process can be intimidating, but also is a time of self-discovery and growth. Keep an open mind, stay organized with your deadlines, and remember to breathe. Good luck!
