2. Submit your test scores.

UWA accepts either SAT or ACT scores. If you don’t have your score you can have the College Board submit your scores for you.

3. Submit your transcripts.

Incoming freshman, once you’ve graduated, be sure that your high school submits your final transcript to us. If you call, they’ll know what to do. Transfer students will need to submit transcripts from each college attended.

4. Submit your Immunization Records

The University requires all on-campus students born after 1956 to have had 2 doses of measles (rubeola) vaccine. One dose must have been a Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine.
