High School Students

UNDERGRADUATE ADMISSION

Recommended High School Preparation

Though no specific high school courses are required for admission to UDM, the most successful candidates are those who've had a well-balanced college preparatory program, including:

four units of college preparatory English
three units of Mathematics
two units of History and/or Social Studies
two units of Natural Science including a lab
study in Speech, Foreign Language, Music, Art or other subjects which contribute to a well-rounded academic background.

For Pre-Dental Hygiene students, additional recommendations include:

one unit of Algebra,
one unit of Biology,
one or more units of Chemistry

Keep in mind that the quality of your academic performance and difficulty of the courses you select are more important than merely meeting the minimum requirements. It is particularly important that you demonstrate strength in those high school subjects directly related to the UDM program you wish to enter.

APPLICATION DEADLINES

Students who expect to apply for scholarships or other financial aid should apply as early as possible. Preferential consideration is given to applications completed before March 1st for the Fall or Summer Terms, and before December 1st for the term beginning in January.

Notification of Acceptance

University of Detroit Mercy operates on a "rolling" admission basis. Applicants are usually notified of their status within two to three weeks of completing the application procedures.

ACT or SAT Results

Freshmen can submit the test scores most commonly taken by high school students in their home state and no preference is given to either ACT or SAT I. Students who would like to receive an admissions decision as soon as possible in the fall should plan to take their test in the second semester of their junior year, but tests taken in the senior year are also acceptable. The admissions process will move more quickly if test score results are sent directly to UDM by either act or sat. To do this, simply list UDM as a test score recipient when the test is taken. The UDM code number for the ACT is 2060 and the code number for the SAT is 1835.
