Some majors have higher admission requirements. To find the requirements for your specific program, visit our degree search.

Now that you understand admission requirements, you’re ready to apply by completing the undergraduate admission application online. To complete the application, you’ll need to:

• Provide information about yourself.
• Select your program and start date.
• Tell us about your school history.
• Report your grades or notify ASU that you’ll send a transcript. 
• Help us determine your Arizona residency.
• Review and submit your application. 

When completing the online admission application, you will be asked which high school you attended. Enter the name of your hometown into this field. Scroll through the city options until you find homeschool toward the bottom.

As a homeschool applicant, you have the option to self-report your high school grades in the application or submit a homeschool transcript to ASU. (See step 6.) To expedite the admission decision, self-report your high school grades in the application.

Don’t self-report high school grades → complete the application faster but wait longer for an admission decision.

Self-report high school grades→ spend more time on the application but receive an admission decision faster.

Homeschool applicants may self-report grades in the application or submit a homeschool transcript (if applicable). The transcript must include the courses you have taken with the credit and grade associated with each course and a signature from a parent or guardian who oversaw the education.

• If you have completed courses from a traditional high school, you may self-report your grades in the application or have your high school send your official transcripts to ASU.
• If you have coursework from both a traditional high school and homeschool, self-report grades for both in the application or have a transcript sent to ASU.
• If you have earned college or university credit, request to have your official transcripts sent directly to ASU from the issuing institution.
• If a homeschool transcript isn’t available and you only need proof of your high school graduation, you may complete the Affidavit of Completion of Secondary School Education form instead. The affidavit must be completed by a parent or guardian who oversaw the education.
