Administrative and Academic Services Admissions Location: Administration Building, Room 210 Telephone: 626-6743 General Information Weber State C&lege admits qualified students without regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, marital status, national origin, or handicap. All students who plan to enroll at the College must complete an application for admission and pay a non-refundable application fee. Those students who are seeking a degree or who wish to receive letter grades must also matriculate by submitting ACT scores, and transcripts of credit from each school previously attended. Students who do not complete the application process will be listed as non-matriculated and will receive CR (credit) or NC (no credit) grades until such time as they complete all necessary steps for admission. Credit/no-credit coursework does not count toward major, minor, or general education requirements and only 30 hours of such credit may be applied toward graduation hours. Continuing non-matriculated students are required to register last. Application Deadlines The application deadline is the Friday prior to the beginning day of school each quarter. Applications received after the specified deadline for a particular quarter are subject to a late registration fee. Application forms are available at all Utah high schools or from the Admissions Office, Administration Building - 1015, Weber State College, Ogden, Utah 84408. Notification and Conditions of Admission Applications are reviewed when all required information is on file, and applicants are notified of their admission status as soon as possible. If admission is granted prior to high school graduation or while work is in progress at another college or university, the decision is contingent upon satisfactory completion of graduation requirements or the work in progress and is revoked if the student does not graduate or if the final work is not acceptable. Acceptance notices are valid only for the quarter indicated. Applicants who do not register the quarter for which they were accepted and who wish to be considered for a subsequent quarter must notify the Admissions Office. Departmental Admission Requirements Some academic departments require additional information and separate application forms before admitting students as majors. It is possible for a student to be admitted to the College but denied admission to a particular department such as Nursing, Dental Hygiene, or Teacher Education. Applicants are responsible for supplying all supplementary materials required by those departments. Students should contact the department in which they are interested or the Academic Advisement Center for specific details. New Freshman Applicants A carefully planned program of high school coursework can give students a definite edge in their college work. Those who master certain basic subjects and skills in high school can substantially increase their chances for success at the college level. Beginning in the fall of 1985, Weber State will screen entering freshmen to determine their learning skill levels. Skill levels will be ascertained by students' ACT scores and high school grades. Students whose learning skills fall below predetermined levels will be placed in appropriate courses to help assure their academic success in college level courses. They will be allowed to carry up to twelve credit hours per quarter while improving their skills. It should be noted that the 1985 entrance requirements will primarily affect degree-seeking students and will not pertain to students enrolled in short-term vocational programs. The vocational programs include the following: Auto Body Technician, Automotive Service Technician, Diesel Service Technician, Construction Technology, Machine Tool, Welding, and Cosmetology. Residents Utah residents must complete the following steps to be accepted as fully matriculated students: 1. Graduate from an accredited high school. 2. Submit ACT scores. 3.
