Admission
All application forms and supplementary information can be obtained from the Office of Admissions and Registration. Applications for admission should be submitted by the date set by the Office of Admissions and Registration. Applications are processed three times a year for the fall, spring and summer semesters. The Office of Admissions and Registration provides the dates, times and places of the required English placement and other examinations. All applications are reviewed and evaluated on an individual basis. All documents received by ADU in connection with applications for admission become the property of ADU and under no circumstances will they be returned to the applicant, forwarded to another institution or duplicated for any purpose.
Students submitting their applications to ADU must certify that the information they have provided ADU is truthful and accurate. If relevant information is not disclosed to ADU upon admission, this will be grounds for rejection of the application or termination of enrollment.
If the student is found to have provided false or misleading information in their ADU application and supporting documents, or if the student fails to disclose relevant information in order to meet ADU admissions requirements, the Office of Admissions and Registration may reject the student's application to ADU or immediately deactivate the student's registration status and freeze any on-campus activities in which he/she is involved.
ADU admits qualified students without regard to race, color, sex, religion, or national origin. Physically handicapped applicants are assessed in accordance with the same admission criteria as other students. ADU provides aid and support, as far as possible, to students with certain disabilities.
