Bethel University has announced its decision to extend the waiver of standardized test requirements through the fall semester of 2023.

This waiver comes as the University’s continued response to repercussions from the COVID-19 pandemic, and is only applicable to traditional undergraduate programs through the College of Arts and Sciences. Students will still be required to submit official high school transcripts for admission.

“I am proud we will be waiving our standardized test requirements. Our incoming students can easily apply and request their transcript. Their acceptance will be finalized with their high school GPA,” said Dr. Walter Butler, president of Bethel University.

Many prospective students still have limited access to ACT/SAT testing centers. By waving this requirement, Bethel remains dedicated to providing equitable access to higher education for prospective students across the world.

“Our decision ensures that potential students from all over the world have the opportunity to apply and be accepted to the College of Arts and Sciences at Bethel,” said Tina Hodges, director of recruitment and admissions.

The recruitment and admissions office also invites prospective students to attend this year’s Fall preview day on October 22. Attendees will tour the campus while participating in many Homecoming activities including the Cat Walk, Wildcat Alley, and the Wildcat Football vs. Thomas More College game.

Campus tours are available Monday through Friday by appointment. For more information or to schedule a tour, contact the admissions team at 731-352-4030 or admissions@bethelu.edu.
