We are offering both on campus and virtual options.  See hbu.edu/visit for more information.

To accommodate those students who have been (or will be) unable to take the SAT and/or ACT exams, Houston Baptist University is waiving the standardized test score requirement for those applying for the Spring, Summer and Fall 2022 semesters.

Applicants who choose to opt out from submitting a standardized test score will need to write a short essay and provide a high school transcript to be considered holistically for admission to HBU; however, all applicants will still be considered for scholarships whether they submit a test score or not.

For more information, please visit the Test Optional Policy page.

At this time, we have not made any changes or modifications to the AP test score policy. Please review the policy to learn what test scores are required to receive college credit.

We understand that several institutions moved to a pass/fail grading system in Spring 2020. Therefore, classes taken in Spring 2020 that receive a “P” passing grade will be evaluated for transfer credit. If you are having trouble obtaining official documents to complete your application, please reach out to admissions for any questions or concerns.

Yes, the campus is open to visitors.  You may also take advantage of several new virtual visit options that are detailed on the hbu.edu/visit page.

Please visit our financial aid page for more details on how we can assist you and your family.
