Washington & Jefferson College requires applicants to complete a rigorous high school curriculum, including four years of English, three years of mathematics, three years of science, three years of social studies, and two years of a foreign language. A strong academic record with a competitive GPA is essential.
Standardized test scores (SAT or ACT) are optional but can strengthen an application. Extracurricular involvement, leadership roles, and personal essays are also evaluated. Transfer students must submit college transcripts and meet similar academic standards. International applicants need proof of English proficiency via TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo scores. Financial aid eligibility depends on FAFSA submission.
