Q: When should a student apply for admission?
Bradley admits students on a rolling admission basis beginning October 1. The admission review process typically takes between 3 and 4 weeks. Most students apply for admission between September 1 and January 1, which allows students to finalize their college plans well in advance of the May 1 National Candidate Reply deadline. Applications are reviewed until the class is filled.

Q: What are the admissions requirements at Bradley?
We encourage students to apply who feel that they can demonstrate both the academic ability to succeed and the potential to contribute to the total educational experience at Bradley. While our students perform above national averages in strong college preparation curriculums, we do not have a stated minimum rank, grade point average (GPA), or ACT or SAT score. We also recognize that rank and GPA can only be considered meaningful in the context of the quality of the high school attended and the classes that a student takes. It is also very important to our admissions review committee that our students balance academic ability with the other qualities that lead to success at Bradley. Social skills, communications skills, leadership, community service, and unique experiences are important qualities in our admission and scholarship review. Finally, different academic areas have different admission requirements.

Q: What is the cost of tuition, room and board per year?
Tuition, room, board and fees total $31,874 for the 2009-2010 school year.
