Hi there! I'm looking at applying to Pace University and I'd like to know their admission requirements. What do I need to submit in my application, like test scores, personal essays, or recommendations? Any help would be awesome!
Hi! I'm happy to help you with the admission requirements for Pace University. When applying, you'll need to complete the following steps:
1. Application: You can apply to Pace using the Common Application or the Pace Online Application.
2. Personal Essay: In addition to the main essay usually required for most applications, some majors at Pace University require you to submit a supplemental essay. Check their website for information on your specific program.
3. Official High School Transcript: Request a copy of your official high school transcript from your school's guidance office. This should be sent directly to Pace University's Office of Undergraduate Admission.
4. Letters of Recommendation: Pace University requires at least one letter of recommendation, usually from a teacher, counselor, or another adult who knows you well and can speak to your personal qualities, academic achievements, and extracurricular involvement.
5. Test Scores: While Pace University is test-optional for most programs, they do require SAT or ACT scores for specific programs, such as the direct-entry nursing program. If you choose to submit test scores, you can self-report them on your application or have the testing agency officially send them to Pace.
6. Application Fee: There's a non-refundable application fee of $50. However, fee waiver requests are available for eligible students experiencing financial hardship.
For international students, additional requirements include English proficiency test scores (such as TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo), official transcripts, and a copy of your passport.
It's important to keep track of deadlines while applying. The Early Action deadline is November 15, while the Regular Decision deadline is February 15. Make sure to double-check the deadlines for your specific program and keep track of financial aid deadlines as well.
Best of luck with your application to Pace University!
