Congratulations on your decision to apply to Menlo College! Please review the requirements below to complete your application.
First, you’ll want to choose an application track: Early Action (non-binding) or Regular Decision. Please review our key deadlines to determine which works best for you.
Next, you’ll submit your application for admission. Candidates are encouraged to complete the Menlo College First-Year Application to fast track your admissions decision. You are also welcome to apply using the Common Application. In addition to the Application itself, we require the following materials:
First-year applicants must submit a high school transcript. Transcripts may be submitted electronically via email to admissions@menlo.edu, or electronic transcript service like Parchment, or sent by mail.
If you have taken any college courses while in high school, please submit your college transcript(s) as well so we can determine transferability of any credits.
We welcome unofficial transcripts for preliminary assessment, but will require official copies if you are admitted (official transcripts may only be submitted via electronic transcript service or sent by mail).
We offer a “test optional” policy for all domestic first-year applicants. Scores on the SAT or ACT are not required for students applying to Menlo College nor will they be disadvantaged for doing so in the admission process. For those who wish to submit scores for consideration, unofficial test scores may be emailed to admissions@menlo.edu, or, self-reported if the student is filling out the Common Application.
Submitting an essay is not mandatory for applicants to Menlo College, unless specifically requested by the Admissions Counselor. However, it won’t put them at a disadvantage during the admission process if they choose to submit one. Students who opt to provide an essay for consideration can email it to admissions@menlo.edu or include it if they’re completing the Common Application.
Submitting a a letter of recommendation is not mandatory for applicants to Menlo College, unless specifically requested by the Admissions Counselor. However, it won’t put them at a disadvantage during the admission process if they choose to submit one.
