Applying for Fall or Spring 2023 enrollment:

First-year students may apply through the Beloit College Application, the Common Application, or Apply Coalition, Powered by Scoir.

Transfer students may apply through the Beloit College Application or the Common Application.

Official or attested copies of your secondary school records and any corresponding national or provincial exam results are required. Please include grades or marks from the past three years of secondary school, in addition to any results, predicted or otherwise, from your final year of secondary school (if applicable).

Secondary school records and university transcripts must comply with all of the following conditions to be considered official documentation of your academic record:

• All academic records and examinations must be in English and submitted through the application or directly to Beloit College by the school, examination board, or certified translator. Original non-translated documentation should also be included.
• Transcripts must have an original and legible seal or stamp of the school that issued the document. Electronic copies must be submitted in color and in PDF format.
• If you have taken an external examination (O-levels, A-levels, IGCSE, HSC, ISC, IB exams, AP, etc.), the organization administering the examination must certify your exam results. If only one original copy of your records is issued, you may send a certified photocopy of the original documentation.

International applicants whose first language is not English will need to demonstrate English proficiency. Learn more about Beloit College’s English proficiency requirements.

Beloit College practices a need-aware admission policy. This means that an applicant’s demonstrated financial need is reviewed as part of the application evaluation process for admission. Beloit offers generous merit and need-based financial aid to international applicants, but need-based aid does become more competitive as an applicant’s demonstrated financial need increases. All applicants will be considered for merit-based scholarships.   

If you do not plan to apply for need-based financial aid, you should complete one of the following options and email or upload supporting financial statement(s):

• Beloit College Declaration of Finances Form
• International Student Certification of Finances

If you do plan to apply for need-based financial aid, you should submit one of the following financial aid applications and email or upload supporting financial documents:

• Beloit College International Student Financial Aid Application
• CSS Profile
• International ACAC International Student Financial Aid Application

Note: Beloit does not provide fee waivers for the CSS Profile.

You will need to log into your Beloit College Applicant Status Page to complete either one of the Beloit College financial support forms. Login information will be sent to you within 24-48 hours after submitting your application. Financial support forms and documentation should be submitted by, or shortly after, the application deadline for which you are applying. Supporting documentation or hard copy financial forms can be uploaded directly in the Beloit financial forms, through your Applicant Status Page, or emailed to intadmis@beloit.edu.

Examples of financial support documentation include but are not limited to the following options:

• Family bank/financial statement(s) or letter from the bank official
• Documentation from a sponsoring person, organization, or government agency
• Letter from an employer showing annual salary
• Tax returns

College or university transcripts and course descriptions

While Beloit does not require letters of recommendation, we value the insight they give us into your ability, character, interests, and potential, as well as individual circumstances that may have affected you personally or academically. For that reason, we strongly encourage you to submit at least one, and we will read up to three.

We encourage you to request a recommendation from the academic teacher who will provide the admissions committee with the most insightful perspective of you as a student.

Beloit is unabashedly test-optional for both admission and consideration for merit scholarships.

If you feel that your test scores reflect well on your abilities and would like us to consider them, please send them. We will consider your highest subscores from multiple test dates.

You may submit test scores via the testing agency (SAT code: 1059 / ACT code: 4564) or your official secondary school transcript.

You may upload digital creative files (poetry, photography, art, etc.) through the online applicant status page. While you may also mail physical items to the Admissions Office, please note that these items cannot be returned.

You may schedule a one-on-one meeting with an admissions counselor in order to learn more about us and to allow us to get to know you better. Reach out to your admissions counselor to set up a virtual visit.

You may also send us your pre-recorded interview from our partners at InitialView or Vericant.
