Kent State welcomes applications from home-schooled students. Students who are home-schooled may submit an equivalent diploma through a successful General Educational Development (GED) test and an ACT/SAT* score or submit the following information for admission consideration:

• Written verification from the appropriate school district that the student has been excused from compulsory attendance for home education
• ACT or SAT* score
• A portfolio of the student’s work reflecting all secondary coursework completed

Students should complete a program of study that covers the material in the full college preparatory program recommended by the Ohio State Board of Education. Non-Ohio students should submit appropriate supporting documents as required by their home state. Please contact the Admissions Office for further details.

* Since regional campuses do not require ACT/SAT scores for admission, this requirement may be waived by the appropriate campus.
