Cost should never decide who leads next.
Every family earning under $75,000 pays nothing — no tuition, no room, no board. Every admitted student receives a full package covering 100% of demonstrated need. No loans required.
Answers, in plain English.
Yes. AGU admissions are fully need-blind for domestic and international applicants alike. Ability to pay plays no role in the admission decision.
AGU is test-optional through the 2026 cycle. Applicants may submit SAT, ACT, or IB predicteds — but doing so is not required and confers no advantage in itself.
Yes. AGU accepts transfer applications each spring for fall matriculation. Transfer applicants should have completed at least 24 credits at an accredited institution.
Regular Decision offers are released on March 31. Early Action applicants receive decisions by December 15.
The deadline is January 15.
