Admissions and Financial Aid

Admission to Muskingum University is based on the student's application, high school curriculum, college preparation work, standardized test scores, teacher and counselor recommendations, and activities and traits outside of a classroom setting. These factors will be taken into consideration by a review committee when determining if a student will be admitted to the university. Once a decision is rendered a notification will be given to the applicant, and if accepted it will be accompanied by material preparing the student for a transition to college life.

Financial aid is available in the form of loans, grants and scholarships, awarded based on need as determined through the information provided by a completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The financial aid office will utilize information within the FAFSA to prepare a financial aid package for the student based on need and merit.
