Your advisor or guidance counselor should complete the School Report and submit it directly to Beloit with your high school transcript.

We also require a recommendation from one of your teachers, preferably someone who has taught you within the last year.

5. Official Secondary School Transcripts

Your college advisor or guidance counselor should send us official copies of your high school transcript/s.

Beloit has no absolute secondary school requirements, but gives preference to applicants who have challenged themselves in a demanding college preparatory program.  This includes four years of English and three years of a foreign language, three years of college preparatory mathematics, three years of laboratory science, and four years of history or social science.

SAT Subject Tests are optional. Beloit College does not consider the SAT or ACT Writing Exam.

TOEFL: Every applicant for whom English is a second language should take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
