Undergraduate Student Admission


Saint Xavier University reviews applications for admission throughout the year. Freshman, transfer and adult students are encouraged to fill out the online application for admission.

Once a student has completed the application, they must submit required documents in order for their application to be reviewed. Incoming freshmen should refer to the freshman student application procedure to determine necessary documents to send for review. Transfer and adult students should refer to the transfer student admission section detailing required documents for submission.

When the application process is complete, the Admission Committee will review the student's application and submitted documents and will make an admission decision. The decision will be to admit, defer, deny or admit on probation. (See Disclaimer below). Applicants who are deferred generally are required to submit additional academic information. Denied applicants are not allowed to register at Saint Xavier University. Students admitted on probation may be required to participate in skill-building or college preparation activities.

All freshman, transfer and adult applicants for admission are notified of this decision on a rolling basis as their applications are completed. Saint Xavier University subscribes to the Candidate's Reply Date Agreement stating the student should accept or reject the offer of admission by May 1. Saint Xavier University continues to accept inquiries, applications and deposits until the beginning of the fall, spring and summer semesters.

To secure a place, the accepted student should submit an enrollment deposit of $100, which will be applied toward tuition. It may be submitted online, by mail, by phone and in-person.

Disclaimer: Applicants to Saint Xavier University certify that the information submitted is complete and correct to the best of their knowledge and understand and acknowledge that the submission of false or incomplete information is grounds for denial of the application, withdrawal of any offer of acceptance, cancellation of enrollment or any appropriate disciplinary action. Additionally, the University reserves the right to deny or rescind admission if it learns at any time that the applicant has engaged in disrespectful, dishonest, or unethical behavior inconsistent with the University's Core Values.
