Incoming students are expected to complete the following high school courses, at a minimum, before enrolling:
- Four years of math (through trigonometry/precalculus)
- Four years of English
- Three years of lab science (one year EACH of biology, chemistry, and physics)
Rose-Hulman does not require standardized test scores for admission. However, if you would like to have your scores considered, you can self-report them on the application for admission or submit them directly through the College Board or ACT. The Rose-Hulman ACT code is 1232, and the SAT code is 1668. We continue to embrace a holistic admission process, and submitted standardized test scores are reviewed together with other significant attributes, including rigor of high school curriculum, subject mastery, intellectual competency, and personal character.
Our students are passionate about science, math, and engineering. They accept the academic rigor of Rose-Hulman, work together collaboratively, and build a strong sense of community. They know the path isn’t easy, but the work leads to meaningful lives.
