The application form, an official copy of your high school transcript, including your first semester senior grades, a letter of recommendation from your secondary school, essay and your SAT-I or ACT scores. Assumption's SAT code is 3009 and the ACT code is 1782.

Yes. All applicants must graduate from an accredited secondary school with a minimum of 18 academic units. These units should include 4 years of English, 3 years of mathematics, 2 years of a foreign language, 2 years of history, 2 years of science, and 5 additional academic units.

For each applicant, the number of solid academic courses, including the number of honors or Advanced Placement level courses are considered. The Admissions Committee understands that grading standards vary from school to school, or from one course to another, and make every effort to take those differences into account. Class rank provides us with some context within which to place the grades of students applying from a given school. Some schools also provide us with grade distribution charts. Finally, the admissions committee is aware of whether the applicant's grade point average or rank-in-class is weighted or unweighted.

We take the highest combined scores.

The Early Action Program is for students who have determined that Assumption is their first choice (and we hope it is!). All applications for Early Action must be received by November 15. Candidates who are not accepted for Early Action will automatically be considered for regular admission.

A student wishing to transfer from an accredited college or university to Assumption should send an official copy of his/her high school transcript along with SAT scores, have a final transcript and the results of the courses taken at each collegiate institution attended mailed directly to us, and also submit a copy of the catalog from each institution attended.

Students may transfer into Assumption for the fall and spring semesters. To be considered for fall admission, all required documents must be received by July 1st. For Spring semester admission, the deadline is December 21st.
