Marian University is breaking down barriers to entry with a new Direct Admission process. High school students who qualify for Direct Admit at Marian, are immediately admitted, bypassing the longer college application process.  In addition, candidates can earn up to $18,000 a year in merit awards, based on their GPA.

“Marian’s new Direct Admission simplifies the admission process for high school students, so they can focus on preparing for the incredible, life-changing experience before them at Marian University,” said Jason Bartelt, Vice President for Enrollment at Marian.

Students must have at least a 2.0 grade point average.  The higher their grade point, the more they will be eligible for scholarships that are designed to recognize and reward academic achievement.  The scholarships make Marian’s quality education more accessible. 

How to Apply

Students interested in the Direct Admit Program can learn more and apply by visiting the Marian University website at www.marianuniversity.edu/direct-admit/. After Direct Admission, one of Marian’s Admission Counselors will reach out to the admitted students about the next steps, including discussing their academic plan, housing and more.

Marian University was founded in 1936 by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes, a group of pioneering sisters, in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. The university has a rich tradition of dedication to the education of the whole person and offers a variety of undergraduate, masters and adult learning degrees at its main campus and online.
