Reply about Admission Questions from HSU

I sent an email to the admissions office at Humboldt State University asking for help. The assistant director of admissions gave me the low down on applying to HSU’s admission process for older students who aren’t transfering as an upper level.

Requirements:

• Must be over 25 years old.
• Have not attended school in the last five years.
• Have completed the minimally required high school Math and English courses.
• Have a cumulative high school GPA of 2.0 or over.

With this, you’re eligible to apply as an “Adult Exception.” Taking the SAT or the ACT is beneficial. She then says to print a copy of CSU application, send it in with the $55 fee, and a personal statement about petitioning for Adult Exception, why you want to study at HSU and what you want to study.

Seems pretty simple enough. I guess. Her email left me with more questions and doubts – I thought only current high school students took the SAT. Why can’t I do the application online? Does my certification in B&P Arts qualifies as school?

Time to send out another email.
