Hofstra University’s admission process involves several steps. Applicants must submit an online application through the Common Application or Hofstra’s website, along with a non-refundable fee. Required materials include high school transcripts, letters of recommendation, and a personal essay. Standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) are optional for most programs.
Some programs may require additional materials, such as portfolios or auditions. International students must provide proof of English proficiency (TOEFL/IELTS). Decisions are made on a rolling basis, with priority given to early applicants. Financial aid and scholarship applications should be submitted concurrently.
