Editor's notes
- Your transcript is the application. NEIU guarantees admission at a 2.5 cumulative GPA, its CDS rates GPA as the only very important factor, and its first-year page says test scores won't be used in the decision. Send scores anyway if you have them, because they can count for scholarships and keep you out of placement courses.
- Apply early in senior year, even though the fall deadline is Aug. 1. Admission is rolling, and the page tells admitted students to file the FAFSA or the Illinois alternative application as early as possible.
