Admissions

Do you offer scholarships?

Yes! Every student receives a scholarship or grant. Annual scholarships are up to $28,000. 

What is the enrollment deadline?

We offer rolling admissions, but many students make their decision before May 1.

Do you require SAT or ACT scores?

No, we are test-optional and do not require SAT/ACT scores.

I’ve taken AP, IB, and/or dual enrollment courses.  Will I receive transfer credit?
  • AP courses: we award transfer credit if you receive a 3 or above on the AP exam
  • IB courses: we award transfer credit for HL courses in which you receive a 4 or above on the IB exam 
  • Dual enrollment courses: we award transfer credit if you receive a C or above in a college course through an accredited college or university

*Please note in order to receive credit you must request your college transcript(s) and/or AP/IB score reports are sent to Keuka College

I’ve applied, when will I receive my decision?

Typically, you will receive your admissions decision about two to three weeks after submitting your required materials.  

What are the admissions requirements?

All programs require that you submit your application and high school transcript. Supplemental materials like test scores, a personal statement and letter(s) of recommendation are optional. 

Competitive programs like Nursing, Occupational Therapy and Health Sciences require high achievement in previous math and science coursework. 

Do I need to send all of my college transcripts?

We can accept unofficial transcripts for an admissions decision; however, official transcripts from every school you’ve attended are required in order to enroll and transfer any college credit. 

How do I apply for financial aid?

Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at www.studentaid.gov. The FAFSA is the application required for all federal aid. You can call 1-800-433-3243 for help with filling out your FAFSA.

The application for New York State aid (TAP) can be found at www.hesc.ny.gov. You can call 1-888-697-4372 for help with filling out your TAP application.

It has been quite a while since I graduated high school. Do I still need to send my official high school transcript? 

Unless you’ve received an official college degree, we require all applicants to send their high school transcripts, regardless of length of time since your graduation. We review all applications holistically, and evidence of consistency and/or growth since high school is especially helpful. 

I’ve been accepted, how do I enroll?

We're thrilled you're coming to Keuka College! Let us know you're coming by completing this enrollment contract and submitting your $200 deposit. 

How can I return to Keuka after previously withdrawing?

Students who wish to resume coursework at Keuka College should review Former Students Returning to Keuka College page in the Keuka College Record. All applications will be reviewed by the Keuka College Office of Admissions as well as the Office of the Registrar, if necessary.
