The admission process at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) involves several key steps. Prospective students must submit an online application through the Common App or VCU’s proprietary platform, along with a non-refundable fee. Required materials include high school transcripts, SAT/ACT scores (optional for some programs), and a personal statement. Some programs may require portfolios, auditions, or additional essays.
VCU operates on a rolling admissions basis, but priority deadlines vary by program. After submission, applicants can track their status via the VCU portal. Transfer students must provide college transcripts and may need to meet program-specific prerequisites.
