Application Instructions
Our admissions process is not about competition.
For us, it is an extended conversation about you: our chance to get to know you better and your opportunity to have all of your questions answered. If your circumstances allow, we encourage you to visit. If you can’t visit, we are happy to meet virtually to talk about your interests, your passions, and your goals. We welcome applications from students who demonstrate strong academic abilities, creativity, a willingness to work hard and contribute to community, as well as those who exhibit determination, self-awareness and maturity.
We are fully test optional. We do not require SAT or ACT scores, nor do we charge an application fee.
We offer a need-blind admissions process and will not consider your financial situation when deciding admission.
Recommendations: Recommenders should submit letters directly to Antioch College through Common App or electronically to admission@antiochcollege.edu. Students applying as first-time college students must have a school-based recommendation submitted in support of their application.
Secondary Education: Students must provide documentation of having completed secondary education prior to enrollment. Evidence may include official high school transcript, successful completion of GED, or a homeschool report. Official documents should be sent electronically through Common App, emailed to admission@antiochcollege.edu, or mailed to Antioch College, Office of Admission, 1 Morgan Place, Yellow Springs, OH 45387. If you completed courses at an accredited college or university, please have those transcripts submitted directly to the Office of Admission.
Homeschool/Unschool Report: We ask that homeschooled or unschooled applicants submit a Homeschooling Report. That document should include the following 1) A list of all courses taken or areas of study covered, 2) Narrative or graded evaluations of student performance in each subject, 3) A short research paper, preferably completed within the last year.
Antioch College does not discriminate in its admissions decisions on the basis of race, ethnicity, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, age, marital status, or physical ability.
