Admissions Types
Rolling Admission
正澳门六合彩开奖直播 considers applications on a rolling basis. That means that you鈥檒l receive your admissions decision within a few weeks of the university receiving all your application materials.
Early Action
Early Action is a non-binding commitment by 正澳门六合彩开奖直播 to respond to first-year undergraduate applicants earlier in the admissions decision cycle. Applicants will still have until May 1 to pay their enrollment deposit or commit to Wilkes.
Applying Early Action ensures a quicker admissions decision, allows you to decide early, and is the best way to fully enjoy your senior year of high school.

Students applying Early Action will receive a decision early- January and will be part of the early financial aid awarding process beginning in late January if Wilkes University has received the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by Feb. 15.
Possible decisions for Early Action qualified applicants will be:
