Step 2:
Complete the Gannon Net Price Calculator
The Gannon Net Price Calculator can be submitted to
receive an estimate of financial aid. Gannon
University's Net Price Calculator was
developed to help families plan for educational costs. In
addition to merit scholarships and grants, the calculator will
utilize Federal Methodology to estimate an expected family
contribution (EFC). The EFC will be used to determine eligibility
for federal, state and institutional need-based financial aid. The
results of this process will provide you with a comprehensive
package of merit, need and self-help resources to use as a
financial planning tool.
Step 4:
Submit your Official SAT/ACT Scores
If these scores already appear on your high school transcript, then you do not need to request for them to be sent to Gannon separately. If you requested to have your scores sent to Gannon at the time that you sat for the SAT/ACT exam, then those scores were sent to Gannon electronically. If you need to make a request to have your official scores sent to Gannon, those scores will also be sent to Gannon electronically by the College Board and ACT.
For students applying for admission to Gannon for the Fall 2022, Spring 2023, Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 semesters as a first-year student or a transfer student, the SAT/ACT requirement has been waived for a vast majority of our academic programs. However, some academic programs will still require the submission of SAT/ACT scores as they have an affiliation with another college, university or professional school that requires them (i.e. LECOM Medical/Pharmacy/Dental, Case Western Dental, Duquesne School of Law, etc.).
While test scores will not be used to determine admission, students who do have SAT/ACT scores are encouraged to submit them to potentially be considered for additional scholarship dollars. Gannon's scholarship model allows for merit awards to be offered without test scores, but in some cases, test scores may increase the value of the merit award.
Step 5:
Submit a Personal Statement and Letters of Recommendation
A Personal Statement assists the Admissions Committee in evaluating your eligibility for Admission beyond test scores and high school record. Submitting a statement is optional, yet recommended; and is required for LECOM 4+4 Medical Program applicants. Applicants applying online should submit their statement via
email to admissions@gannon.edu.
Personal Statements should be a typed, one-page response to one of the following topics: 1. How have you applied a classroom lesson to your daily life? or 2. Ask and answer one question that you wish we had asked.
Students
apply for a health professions program at Gannon are required to submit at
least one letter of recommendation from a high school science teacher. Other
letters are welcome but not required.
