High Point University requires applicants to meet specific academic and personal criteria. A completed application includes official high school transcripts, SAT or ACT scores (optional for 2023), and a counselor recommendation. A minimum GPA of 3.0 is recommended, though competitive programs may require higher standards.
Extracurricular involvement, leadership experience, and personal essays are also evaluated. International students must demonstrate English proficiency via TOEFL or IELTS. Some programs, like Honors or scholarship consideration, may have additional requirements. Prospective students should review their intended major’s prerequisites, as certain departments enforce stricter admission benchmarks.
