'Tis the Application Season

Application season is officially upon us! We have been receiving several applications over the last few weeks with no sign of slowing down. With our rolling admissions policy, we are doing the best we can to get decisions out as soon as possible. By the time you complete your application, you should hear back from us in about three weeks with a decision from us.

One of the benefits of rolling admissions is that quick turn-around. The earlier you apply, the earlier you will hear back from us, so it's up to you to get that application in! Western New England University is on the Common Application and we have our own application which can be found on our website (www.wne.edu). As for things we will need in the application, below is the official list:

-Completed application w/ an application fee of $40
-Official high school transcript (including first quarter senior year grades)
-SAT and/or ACT scores (please send us all scores, we will automatically take your highest scores--Critical Reading and Math for the SATs; English, Math, and composite for the ACTs)
-Personal statement/essay
-At least one letter of recommendation

As always, if you have any questions about the application process or if you would like to track the status of your application, please feel free to contact the Admissions Office at 413-782-1321 or email us at learn@wne.edu. We hope to see your application soon! Happy holidays!
