The University of Akron’s admission process involves several steps. First, applicants must complete an online application via the university website or Common App, paying a $50 fee. High school transcripts or GED scores are required, along with ACT/SAT scores, though test-optional policies may apply. International students must submit English proficiency test results (TOEFL/IELTS).
After submission, the admissions office reviews materials, typically within 2-4 weeks. Accepted students receive an offer letter and details on next steps, including housing and orientation. Some programs may have additional requirements, such as portfolios or auditions for arts majors.
