Application Process for Admission
Admission to an Antioch degree program
is by written application and interview. The application for
degree program acceptance must be completed according to instructions contained
on the application form provided, and submitted by the applicable deadline.
The application fee is non-refundable. The transcripts and letters
of recommendation (excluding the Teacher Licensure program) sent to the Admissions Office will be attached
to the application when received. Students must arrange for official transcripts
to be sent from all institutions previously attended. Upon receipt,
these documents become the property of the University.
It is the responsibility of the student
that the application, with all necessary supporting documents,
be complete and in order. When the application is complete, it
will be forwarded to
the appropriate program and a faculty interview will be scheduled.
After acceptance and registration, the student file resides in
the Registrar’s
Office.
Prerequisite
study for M.A. and B.A. Programs
A Bachelor’s Degree from an institution
accredited by one of the regional accrediting associations is
required as a basis for admission to a graduate school.
Applicants must provide a transcript(s)
from all accredited institution(s) previously attended.
Non-Degree Seeking
Individuals who wish to attend classes in the B.A.
Completion program, and who are non-degree seeking, must register
during late registration times,
and are not eligible for financial aid. Admittance to a course
is on a space available basis and/or program approval.
A subsequent decision to enroll requires completion
of the admission process and formal acceptance by the University.
Credits earned as a non-degree seeking student are not automatically
applicable to the degree programs if the applicant is accepted
(although most do count).
Change of Degree
Program
Graduate students who wish to change
from one degree program to another must apply for admission to the new
program. If admitted to the program, the student is responsible for complying
with all program and residency requirements. Previous coursework is not
automatically transferable into the new program.
Re-admission
If a student has been withdrawn from
a degree program, re-admission will be necessary in order to continue
a program of studies. The individual programs generally determine what
is required in this process (beyond the required application and fee)
based upon the length of absence. If an application is required, the student
must use the most recent application Re-admitted students are required
to comply with degree requirements in effect at the time of re-admission.
Deferment
A student may defer his/her enrollment
until a future quarter by submitting the request in writing to
the Admissions office. The student must specify the entry date,
and this request is subject
to the approval of the program office. The student must pay the
tuition and fees that are applicable to the quarter the student
begins the program.
The student’s application will remain valid for one year from the
quarter specified on the student’s original application. After that
quarter, the student must re-apply, following the instructions
contained on the most current application for that program, including
the re-payment
of the non-refundable application fee. Here again, the student
must pay the tuition and fees that are applicable to the quarter
for which s/he
registers.
Refusal / Rejection
The Admissions Committee reserves the
right to refuse admittance to an applicant who is unlikely to conform
to the standards and ideals which the University seeks to maintain. The
applicant will receive written notification of his/her status from the
Admissions committee. The Admissions Committee and all members of the
institution are not permitted to provide the applicant with the rationale
for rejection. Only those students who have received formal notification
of acceptance should expect to begin their programs with the University.
