The admission process at Old Dominion University (ODU) involves several steps. First, applicants must submit an online application through the ODU website or Common App, along with a non-refundable fee. High school transcripts or GED scores are required, as well as SAT or ACT scores, though test-optional policies may apply. Transfer students need college transcripts.
Additional materials, like letters of recommendation or a personal statement, may be requested. International students must provide proof of English proficiency (TOEFL/IELTS). Once submitted, applications are reviewed holistically, considering academic performance, test scores, and extracurriculars. Decisions are typically communicated within 4-6 weeks.
