Application & Forms
Your first step toward success at Southwestern is completing our Application for Admission and Merit Scholarships. The Application allows you to share important information about yourself with us. By getting to know you as an individual, we make our admission decision in the most personal way possible.
Each application is carefully and thoroughly reviewed. We believe this is the only way a selective university like Southwestern can make a quality decision. Please give time and careful thought to completing the application.
Please note: The following forms are for high school seniors. Transfer students should visit the Transferring to Southwestern University page for related information and items.
