The University of Southern Maine (USM) admission process involves several steps. First, applicants must complete an online application via the Common App or USM’s website, including a $50 fee or waiver. High school transcripts or GED scores are required, along with optional SAT/ACT scores. Transfer students must submit college transcripts.
Some programs may require additional materials like essays or recommendations. After submission, USM reviews applications holistically, considering academic performance and potential. Admitted students receive an acceptance letter with next steps, including enrollment deposits and orientation registration. Deadlines vary by semester, so checking USM’s website for specific dates is advised.
