Step 1 | Submit Your Application
First-time college students apply to Pacific University through the Common Application.
Start Your Common App
Step 2 | Send In Your Supporting Docs
Official Transcripts Required: Your high school will need to send your official high school transcript to Pacific University’s Admissions Office. Your school may have an electronic document service where you can order transcripts, or your school can email or mail your transcript directly to Pacific. Remember: Your transcript needs to come directly from the school.
If you’ve completed any college coursework during high school, you’ll also need to order college transcripts to be sent to Pacific.
Standardized Test Scores Optional: It’s up to you whether to submit an ACT or SAT score as part of your application. These tests are optional for admission to Pacific. You’ll select your preference on the Common App, then have your scores sent directly to Pacific through the testing agency.
