UNLV admissions decisions are offered on a rolling basis, so you will be provided an admission decision relative to when you apply and submit required documents. The usual turnaround time is one to two weeks once all required documentation has been received and posted to your file. The deadline for fall admission is July 1, although the priority date for financial aid and scholarship consideration is November 1 of the previous year. The deadline for spring admission is December 1. The application fee is $60 for domestic students and $95 for international students.

Early application is encouraged to allow you ample time to be admitted, get packaged for financial aid and scholarships, and register for and attend orientation. It is especially important to pay attention to earlier priority deadlines for Scholarship and Financial Aid opportunities.

Your first step toward admission at UNLV is to apply online and submit your official high school transcript and standardized test scores from the ACT or SAT. All official transcripts from non-US institutions must be accompanied by an evaluation and translation (if necessary) from a NACES member organization.

UNLV Admissions will automatically make one attempt to electronically order an official transcript for current students in CCSD (Clark County School District).

Homeschool students must submit documentation that the high school curriculum is in accordance with a Home School Association or follows the curriculum of an accredited high school.

GED or HiSET recipients must submit official GED or HiSET test scores.

If you require an F-1 visa to study in the US, you will qualify as an international student and must provide additional documentation for admission to UNLV.
