What are the minimum academic requirements for admission?

A high school curriculum that includes college preparatory courses in English, social studies, math and science. Two years of foreign language are preferred but not required. A high school curriculum that is college preparatory in nature does not include technical, vocational or applied courses. An acceptable college preparatory curriculum includes academic courses that are specifically geared toward preparing a student for college. Although Honors or Advanced Placement (AP) courses are not required for admission they do carry extra weight in the application review process.
