Western Kentucky University (WKU) operates on a rolling admissions basis for most programs, but priority deadlines ensure consideration for scholarships and financial aid. The fall semester priority deadline is typically February 1, while the spring semester deadline is around November 1. Summer intake deadlines vary by program.
Applications are submitted online via the WKU website, with required materials including transcripts, test scores (optional for some programs), and a fee. Graduate programs may have additional requirements and earlier deadlines. Prospective students should verify specific deadlines for their intended program, as dates can differ for international applicants or competitive programs.
