SPU writing prompt (option 2 of 2; choose one) (500)

Why are you interested in attending SPU and how do you hope your faith will grow or be developed in SPU's Christ-centered education?

Editor's notes

  • Apply early action by Nov. 1. It's non-binding, waives the $50 fee and puts you first in line for aid.
  • If you're aiming for nursing, business or the Distinguished Scholar Award, send scores. SPU says they're recommended for all three, even though it's test-optional.
