Admissions Policy
Greenville College is a community in which individuals join together to grow academically, personally, and spiritually. Together we seek to honor Christ by integrating faith and learning while our hearts and lives reflect mature Christian practice.

Entrance Requirements
Greenville College admits students who desire to achieve a liberal arts education in an evangelical Christian context. Members of this community are either committed to Christ or are sympathetic to the Christian perspective.

Applicants are evaluated by consideration of their academic record, test scores, references, interviews, and participation in extracurricular activities.

An exact course distribution is not required, but the College recommends at least eleven of the minimum sixteen units be in college preparatory subjects. It is highly recommended that entering students have four secondary school units of English, one unit each in algebra and geometry, two units of foreign language, one of laboratory science, and one of American history. However, each candidate will be evaluated on the basis of the individual credentials presented to the College in support of the application.

Greenville College admits students on a rolling basis. Students receive notification of admission approximately one week after their admission file is complete. The Admissions Committee reserves the right to request a personal, on-campus interview with an applicant before making the final admissions decision.

Greenville College has the right to refuse admission or readmission for any student at its discretion. The college does not discriminate in its educational programs or activities on the basis of handicap, race, creed, color, sex or national origin which is in full compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the laws of the State of Illinois.

Conditional Admission
Recognizing the differing backgrounds of students and allowing for differing rates of intellectual maturity, the College makes the following exceptions to the usual academic requirements for a limited number of students:

Transfer students with less than a "C" average may be admitted on academic probation by special action of the Admissions Committee if there is reason to expect an improvement in academic performance.

Past low academic achievement will not be weighed negatively for veterans of the United States armed forces and other mature students who have been out of school for several years.

Results of the GED (General Education Development) high school equivalency test may be required for students not having graduated from high school.

High school graduates not meeting admission requirements may be admitted by special action of the Admissions Committee. These students may be required to enroll in a special academic program as a condition of their enrollment. Satisfactory completion of this program is required for continuing enrollment.
