Step 2 – Submit Official Documentation

Submit your official college transcripts. Use your  to see all transcripts required to complete your application. If you believe you did not attend an institution that appears in your materials checklist, contact admissions@augusta.edu for directions on how to obtain the appropriate substitute document.

Send your transcripts electronically directly to Academic Admissions from your college or university, or third-party service they use like Parchment, E-scrip, or National Student Clearinghouse. Choose 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÆØÁÏ Undergraduate Admissions (or designate admissions@augusta.edu) as the direct recipient for your document.

Or, you can request a transcript through postal mail. Bring transcripts to our office in their original sealed envelope exactly as received from the originally issuing institution. Transcripts can also be mailed to:

Office of Academic Admissions
1120 15th Street, Benet House

We cannot accept electronic copies of transcripts provided by the student or official transcripts that have already been opened.

Freshman Transfer applicants must also submit their official, final high school transcript and SAT or ACT scores.

Step 3 – Confirm Your Enrollment

If you are admitted, you will need to secure your seat by confirming your enrollment in your application status portal.

Transfer applicants admitted to allied health or nursing programs also must submit an enrollment deposit. Enrollment deposit amount varies by program.

After submitting the acceptance agreement on your portal and activating your AU credentials, you can access POUNCE and other AU Portals for students.

Note: For any student in a non-selective program - with or without active duty service - who did not enroll or attend any other higher education institutions after being admitted/re-admitted, admission/re-admission will be deferred for up to one year via a written request to Academic Admissions. Submission of a new application is not required for admitted/re-admitted students in non-selective programs who meet the requirements stated here. 


Students in selective or graduate programs whose academic endeavors were interrupted by their military service will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
