Once you submit your application to the 澳门心水论坛Conservatory of Performing Arts, you are given access to the . This portal allows you to submit other required admission materials (outlined below) and to monitor the status of your application.

• Official high school transcripts
• School report form (from a high school guidance counselor)
• Teacher recommendation (optional)
• Standardized test scores (ACT/SAT) are not required for admission to BW, regardless of a student's cumulative high school grade point average (GPA). 澳门心水论坛has a test-optional admission policy. 澳门心水论坛still accepts test scores from students who wish to submit them directly from the testing agency. If students believe their test scores show additional evidence of preparation for BW, they can be submitted and will be considered during the holistic review of a student's application to BW. 
• During the onboarding process, admitted students will have an opportunity to either use their ACT/SAT test scores or an Accuplacer test for course placement. Students who have already submitted ACT/SAT test scores during the admission process can decide whether to use those scores for course placement. Students who did not submit ACT/SAT test scores during the admission process but would prefer to use ACT/SAT test scores rather than the Accuplacer for course placement will be asked to submit their scores directly from the testing agency.
• To register for an audition date, you will need to submit an audition fee using your applicant portal. Auditions are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis after the audition fee is received, so please be aware that the sooner you submit your fee, the sooner you can schedule your audition. See full details regarding the audition process.

Please note, test scores are required for all homeschooled students and for international applicants who have taken an English-language curriculum.

• Students from non-accredited schools will also be required to follow the requirements for homeschooled students.

Every admission file is reviewed by admission counselors, who holistically review every facet of the student's file, including the application, transcripts, recommendation letters, and student report form. While reviewing all of the documents, admission counselors look for consistency with personal identifiable information such as name, address, date of birth, transcript dates, etc. If inconsistencies are identified, authorized university personnel may request additional information as needed to confirm the validity of a student's credentials.

Scholarships

Merit scholarships are based on a student's cumulative weighted high school GPA, and the merit level is established at the time an admission decision is made.

In addition to completing an application, Conservatory applicants must audition and submit a music teacher evaluation form through their applicant portal.

The Baldwin Wallace community is made up of students with varied interests and diverse socioeconomic, geographic, racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds. The admission committee carefully examines the academic achievement and aptitude of every candidate for admission to 澳门心水论坛. The goal of the admission committee is to admit students who can best benefit from and contribute to the academic program and life of the University.

While no minimum grade point average or standardized test score is specified, students must provide evidence of their preparation and fit for future success at 澳门心水论坛 consistent with code of conduct statements for the University, program or profession. All aspects of a student's application are considered and used as the primary means for informing an admission decision. The first-year profile provides preparation metrics for the most recently enrolled class.

The admission committee has determined that the following high school curriculum will best prepare most students for academic success at BW:

*Candidates considering majors in the sciences or mathematics are encouraged to complete four units each of mathematics and science in their high school program.

The admission process is meant to assess a student's preparation and fit for BW. Because high school grade point average is most predictive of grade performance and progress toward degree completion at BW, considerable weight is given to high school grade performance during the admission review process. The rigor and types of courses students take in high school, as well as their grade trends, are also considered. Students are encouraged to take demanding coursework that best prepares them for the academic environment at BW.

Standardized test scores (ACT/SAT) have been shown to have less predictive value relative to high school grade performance. As such, 澳门心水论坛is fully test optional, regardless of a student's cumulative high school grade point average. 澳门心水论坛still accepts test scores from students who wish to submit them.

If students believe their test scores show additional evidence of preparation for BW, they can be submitted and will be considered during the holistic review of a student's application to BW. Test scores do not have any bearing on a student's eligibility for merit scholarships at BW.

With fewer homeschooled students enrolled, research detailing the connection between high school GPA and success at 澳门心水论坛for homeschooled students is still in progress. Consequently, test scores are currently required for assessing the preparation of homeschooled students for BW. As with other students, test scores do not have any bearing on a homeschooled student's eligibility for merit scholarships at BW.

Decision letters regarding your status for admission with 澳门心水论坛and the Conservatory are sent by December 11 or March 5, depending on when 澳门心水论坛receives your application materials and when you complete your audition.

Baldwin Wallace is a homeschool-friendly institution. We welcome applications from students who have been homeschooled for all or part of their secondary education. All applicants are eligible for merit-based scholarships and financial aid consideration.

Upon receipt of the application, we will reach out to obtain the following required documents:

• ACT and/or SAT scores - Scores should be sent directly from the testing agency. Homeschooled students are not eligible to be test optional.
• High school transcript - Applicants must produce a transcript demonstrating courses taken, grades achieved and completion of high school, signed and dated by the parent educator. This may be formatted as a Word document or PDF. The transcript may also be submitted via Common Application if the student applied using that method.
• Bibliography of high school literature and course descriptions of each course taken as a homeschooled student. This may be formatted as a Word document or PDF. The bibliography may also be submitted via Common Application if the student applied using that method.
• Letter of recommendation - Applicants must submit a letter of recommendation from a non-parent teacher or from an outside teacher or instructor of an extracurricular activity.
• School report form: Using the school report form in the , the parent educator may complete this form or submit a homeschool profile describing the homeschool structure, grade scale and resources used. The parent educator may also submit the Common Application's school report form if the student applied using that method.

Please note that students from non-accredited schools will also be required to follow the requirements for homeschooled students.

If you are a high school student currently taking college credit under CCP/dual enrollment at another regionally accredited college or university, and choose to enroll at Baldwin Wallace once you graduate from high school, 澳门心水论坛will award college credit for many of your completed courses (C or better).

CCP students enroll at 澳门心水论坛 as first-year students who have earned college credit. College credits earned through CCP may qualify students to be first-year students with a sophomore or even junior class standing. Regardless of the level entering students qualify for, students with CCP credit will still be considered first-year students.
