Students who submit scores have the option to&nbsp;submit&nbsp;self-reported scores on the application for admission or on the student status page, which is available after applying. Students who apply with test scores will be required to submit official test scores upon enrollment. More information can be found in the frequently asked questions section below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If students decide to apply without scores, the Office of Admission will review their application based on academic performance, curriculum, engagement in and outside of the classroom, and the essay. In addition, students may submit a r\u00e9sum\u00e9 and letters of recommendation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While test scores are not required for any students, they are recommended for certain student populations and degree programs.
