Early Admissions - Post Secondary Education Option Program ( PSEOP )

Pursuant to Ohio Senate Bill 140, the early admission opportunity is available to high school students who meet the eligibility criteria for acceptance. Qualified students who have completed their sophomore year and who have approval of both parent or guardian and the high school guidance counselor are eligible to make application for early admission to Chancellor University to pursue college course work. Acceptance into the PSEOP does not guarantee acceptance into the traditional college program. Contact the Office of Admissions for additional Program information.



The early admission opportunity is intended to:
1) provide high school students with the opportunity to explore various career goals; particularly those oriented toward the field of business, and
2) allow selected high school students to experience collegiate enrollment and academic rigor.
To be eligible, a high school student seeking early admission must

• Complete the admission process which includes
• Submitting an application and an official copy of the high school transcript through their current grade.
• Completing the Chancellor University Placement Test.
• Completing the Post Secondary Education Options Application Form.
• Completing the Post Secondary Options Authorization Form.
• Completing the Chancellor University Medical Release Form.
• Be accepted into the early admission opportunity,
• Have a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA,
• Have at least an 18 score on the ACT test.

Upon receipt of all official documents, an evaluation will be completed, and an offer of acceptance or a notice of denial of admission will be issued.

Placement Testing

Initial placement in mathematics and/or English courses may be determined by high school grade point average (GPA), as well as by ACT and SAT scores, or by credit transferred from an accredited institution. If one or more of these materials is not available, the student may be given a series of standardized, in-house tests to assist in determining initial placement of the student in classes.
Transfer and returning students may also be required to take a placement test before enrolling in any English or math classes.
Placement test results are valid for one calendar year. Placement Testing and results cannot be waived. A student may only re-take a portion of the placement test one time. International students are required to take all portions of the placement test. Please contact the Office of Academic Advising for additional guidelines and information.

Transfer Credit
Undergraduate Students (insert)

1. Students holding an Associate's degree earned at a regionally accredited institution may be granted junior class standing upon admission to Chancellor University, providing the Associate's degree was attained in studies compatible with programs offered by Chancellor University.

2. Transfer credit is granted only for courses in which the student received a grade of "C" or above. Exceptions may be made at the discretion of the Vice President of Academic Affairs or Provost.

3. Elective credits earned at another institution may be accepted for transfer, providing they are similar in content to courses offered by Chancellor University. Non-comparable courses may be accepted on a limited basis as electives.

4. Additionally, within the 30 semester hours of course work required for the Bachelor's degree (15 hours for the Associate's degree), transfer students must complete a minimum of 9 semester hours of course work for grades in their major or specialization at Chancellor University. Direct Assessment, the Portfolio Review Process, Credit by Examination, CLEP, and Dantes Testing cannot be used to satisfy either the 30-hour (15 for Associate's degree) residency requirement, or 9-hour major or specialization requirement. Residency requirement waived for Military students.

5. Transfer or returning students may be required to repeat certain accounting and/or technology (computer) courses taken more than three to five years prior, depending on the program or courses in question.

Students who return to the University after an absence of two or more years, during which time they did not earn any credits at Chancellor University, must satisfy program requirements in the catalog in force at the time of their return. This policy applies regardless of the number of credits earned under a previous catalog.
