The admission policy embodies a commitment to the principles of inclusiveness and diversity. The College does not consider just one academic criterion for admission. The policy allows the College to consider a wide range of academic achievements that may demonstrate an individual’s ability to succeed at the College. Applicants who do not meet the standard admission criteria may apply or be considered for special admission programs, such as the Educational Opportunity Program. Several departments including programs in the School of Education and the School of Business may have additional internal admission criteria that must be fulfilled prior to advancing to upper level courses within the department. Other departments have a minimum grade point average for continuation within the major. These departments and requirements are listed under the admission requirements section of the catalog or are described in the academic program section of the Catalog. Admission and Application Procedures Admission to the College is granted during the fall and spring semesters. Students who are accepted early for the fall semester may begin attending classes during the summer session. An applicant who is admitted may attend classes during the day or evening. All documentation required for the admission process is described below. After careful review of an application, Enrollment Services Advisors may need further information to make a determination about a candidate’s admission. In these cases, the Office of Enrollment Services may request that applicants submit additional information, such as letters of recommendation, senior year high school grades or an updated college transcript. A personal interview may also be requested. The review of an applicant’s eligibility for admission cannot be conducted until all the appropriate documents have been received. To inquire about the status of an application and its documentation, applicants should access the College’s website at and click on the link at the top right side of the homepage. Inaccurate or misleading information, submission of false records or omission of previous college attendance constitutes grounds for denial of admission. Students who have clear career objectives should indicate the major that is desired on the application. This will enable the College to direct new students to the appropriate department for advisement. Students who are undecided about their major field of interest should apply as a Liberal Studies major. Students must declare a major upon admission in order to obtain federal financial aid. Furthermore, failure to declare a major prior to earning 42 credits will also result in loss of eligibility for state financial aid (TAP/Excelsior). State University of New York policy prohibits SUNY Old Westbury from inquiring on its admissions applications about an applicant’s prior criminal history. After acceptance, the College shall inquire if the student has previously been convicted of a felony if such individual seeks campus housing or participation in clinical or field experiences, internships or study abroad programs. The information required to be disclosed under SUNY policy regarding such felony convictions shall be reviewed by a standing campus committee consistent with the legal standards articulated in New York State Corrections Law. Students who have previously been convicted of a felony are advised that their prior criminal history may impede their ability to complete the requirements of certain academic programs and/or to meet licensure requirements for certain professions. Students who have concerns about such matters are advised to contact the dean’s office of the respective school that houses their intended academic program. Applicants who do not meet the criteria for one program are not advised to apply for a different program to gain admission to the College. Eligibility based on coursework taken at Old Westbury for a different major may not be sufficient for admission to the original intended major. Applicants are advised to speak with an Admission Advisor before considering such action. An official declaration of major (see the section in this catalog), separate from the application, is required for majors within the School of Business. The indication of a School of Business major on the admission application does not guarantee admission to the School of Business. Applicants have the right to appeal an admission decision by submitting a letter to the Office of Enrollment Services, explaining the exceptional circumstances that occurred and describing actions taken that demonstrate a readiness to be academically successful at the College. Once information is obtained, a decision will be made by an Admission’s Committee. Be advised that an appeal does not automatically result in an admission offer and the applicant denied to the College cannot file any other type of application for admission during the same semester All applicants must pay a non-refundable $50 application fee and file either the Common Application or SUNY Application. The application fee is waived for transfer students who have received an associate’s degree from a State University of New York Community College or a City University of New York Community College and apply directly to a SUNY college. Freshman applicants who qualify for the SUNY Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) are also eligible for an application fee waiver. Details about the waivers are described on both applications.

Advanced Placement courses (AP), International GCSE A Levels or International Baccalaureate (IB) credit may be granted upon receipt of an official A Level, AP, or IB score report from the College Board, the high school, or appropriate Examination Board. First Time to College Admission Requirements (Freshman) Admission to the College is based on an applicant’s academic achievement in high school. Newly admitted freshman students accepted to the College in the Fall of 2019 had a median high school average of 86 and a median combined SAT score of 1,040. Admission is currently based on the total score of the Critical Reading and Mathematics portion of the SAT exam. Applicants taking the GED must have a minimum score of 3000 and must also meet the standardized test score requirements (minimum combined SAT score of 1,040 or Composite ACT score of 22).

Applicants requesting an admission’s decision appeal should send their request in writing to the Office of Enrollment Services and explain the reasons for the request. An Enrollment Service’s Admission Committee will conduct a more extensive review of the application based on the applicant’s special circumstances, the overall high school average (year to year progress), combined SAT scores, number and level of academically challenging courses, overall senior-year grades, the quality of the written essay (Supplemental Application or Autobiography) and a personal interview. The Admission’s Committee will then make a recommendation based on all available information and inform the applicant, in writing, of the decision. High school students may obtain college credit for participating in the College Board’s Advanced Placement Program with a minimum AP exam score of 3. Students following an IB high school program may also obtain college credits based upon scores received on the final exams (not coursework).

The IELTS or TOEFL exam is not required for Permanent Residents or US citizens educated in the USA. A select group of incoming full-time freshmen are invited each year to participate as Honors College students.

We value the continued pursuit of excellence and we believe that these students do as well. Eligibility for the college will be based on a variety of factors, but important selection criteria will include a review of high school average (approximately 90 or higher) and SAT scores (approximately a score of 1150 or higher). The College has a joint degree program with NYIT’s College of Osteopathic Medicine.

All transfer applicants with fewer than 24 college credits must submit a high school transcript or GED and an SAT score for admission. All transfer students must also submit proof of high school graduation by submitting an official final high school transcript even if the student has obtained an Associate degree. Students will not be allowed to enroll until this proof is submitted and Financial Aid cannot be awarded until the admission requirement is met. Most programs at the College require a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.00. Programs within the School of Arts & Sciences, School of Business and the School of Education currently require higher minimum grade point averages. The specific admission requirements for these programs are as follows: All applicants must have been in good academic standing at the previous college of attendance to be considered for admission.
