Application To A Degree Program
Any student who wishes to earn a degree at the Elms must follow the procedure listed below:

• Complete and submit the Elms application form including:
• $30.00 application fee
• 100-250 word statement of purpose
• Two letters of recommendation
• Official high school transcripts or GED
• Official transcripts from all colleges attended
• Transcripts should be sent: Division of graduate studies and continuing education

When the student's file is complete, as outlined above, the file will be evaluated and if found satisfactory, the student will receive a letter of acceptance.

A student may take up to nine semester hours towards a degree without official acceptance.

No student, however, may obtain financial aid without an official acceptance.
