Academic Requirements
- The primary consideration in the evaluation process is academic excellence. Haverford is interested in students who demonstrate ability and interest in achieving at the highest levels of scholarship and service; engaging deeply and substantively with the community; and growing both intellectually and personally. The rigor of the courses youve taken, your grades, and the consistency with which youve worked over four years gives us the clearest indication of how well you will do at Haverford. Standardized tests also play a role in helping us evaluate you in comparison to students taught in many different secondary schools. Recommendations, the form and content of your writing, your potential for contribution to the campus community, and your interview all help the Admission Committee draw fine distinctions among highly talented applicants.Financial need does not influence our admission decision for U.S. citizens and permanent residents.
