ADMISSIONS PROCEDURES
Undergraduate Catalog 2008-2010 PRINT PAGE

A student interested in attending Henderson should write to the Office of University Relations/Admissions, Box 7560, for the necessary information and forms.

A candidate for admission must submit:

1. A completed application for undergraduate admission.
2. An Arkansas Certification of Immunization and a Henderson self completed Medical History and Health Evaluation form.
3. An official transcript of previous work.

A student with no previous college study must submit an official high school transcript indicating cumulative grade point, class rank and date of graduation or GED certificate.

A student transferring from other colleges must submit official transcripts from all colleges attended. Transfer students must provide ACT or alternate test scores, or documentation that remedial courses are not required.

Transfer students with less than 12 hours of transferable work must satisfy the admission requirements of first time freshmen. Remedial and vocational and technical credits do not transfer.

4. Test Scores:

Each entering freshman is required to submit scores for the American College Test (ACT) or alternate test. Test scores sent from The American College Testing Program are to be on file at the time of admission. It is most important that the test be taken at one of the regularly scheduled periods (October, December, February, April, June) during the year prior to college entrance. The test scores provide added bases for guidance, placement in developmental courses, and possible advanced standing. The residual ACT will be available on campus on registration day for each semester. Call the Director of Testing at 870-230-5470 for date and time.

On entrance, the university may require additional guidance testing.

5. Credit for work completed will be granted only to students who have completed entrance requirements.

Students may enter at the beginning of the fall or spring semester and at the beginning of either of the summer terms. Students may register for the maximum semester hour load during the first five days of a semester. Registration for a summer term may not be later than the second day of the class.
