Bellevue University Admissions

Removing barriers to the education you deserve.

College can be challenging but getting in shouldn’t be. At Bellevue University, we have simplified our requirements for admission for bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral students. For example, we do not require entrance exam scores like the ACT, SAT or GRE because we’ve found most students can be successful regardless of those scores. When you apply to Bellevue University, you can get on track more quickly to achieving your goal.
