Applications for admission to the University of Dayton are reviewed for specific academic majors or, when applicable, for undeclared status in an academic division. The admission committee reviews grade record and pattern throughout high school, selection of courses in preparation for college, class standing or ranking (if provided by the high school) and ACT or SAT scores. The admission committee also considers the recommendation of a high school guidance counselor, along with other factors. The University of Dayton strives to admit students who possess the intellectual ability, the commitment to community and the motivation to thrive at the University of Dayton.
