We’re excited about your interest in enrolling at Southeast.
Yes, there is a process. But, it doesn’t need to be overwhelming and it doesn’t need to intimidate you. Let’s do this.
The requirements for admission vary depending on how you plan to enter Southeast. We’ll need to take into consideration where you’re coming from, how much prior education you’ve completed, and what type of degree or program you may want to earn.
Both past academic performance and the demonstration of academic promise are taken into consideration for admission to Southeast. Decisions are made without regard to race, color, creed, gender, disability or national origin.
