Bluefield University is offering high school seniors a faster, more straightforward way to receive an admission decision through a new direct-admission pathway for traditional, in-person undergraduate students.
The direct admission process allows eligible students to meet with a Bluefield University admissions counselor and receive an admission decision quickly, often the same day, by providing an unofficial high school transcript. Prospective students can also apply online and receive a decision within days, rather than weeks or months.
“Students don’t want to wait to know what comes next,” said Travis Roberts, Vice President for Enrollment Management at Bluefield University. “When we meet with a student, we can often make a same-day admission decision. All we need is a copy of their unofficial transcript.”
In many cases, students who qualify through Direct Admission may also receive scholarship awards during the same meeting, giving families early clarity on both acceptance and cost. Minimum GPA for admission is 2.0.
Direct Admission events will be held at select high schools. Students may also participate by contacting the Bluefield University admissions office to schedule a Direct Admission appointment.
To set up a meeting with an admissions counselor, students and families may call 800-872-0175 or email [email protected].
“We will need a copy of a student’s unofficial or in-progress transcripts. Students can email them to us, text us an image, or bring them along when they visit us or we visit their school,” said Roberts.
