Guidance Counselors
Welcome!
As colleagues in education, we know that you need quick access to information that will help your students attain their goals. These pages are designed as a portal to assist high school guidance counselors, community college advisors, and agency representatives learn more about IU Southeast and understand the enrollment process.
When should your student apply?
IU Southeast uses a rolling admissions process. It generally takes us 3-4 weeks to process an application, so students should plan accordingly.
High School students may apply any time after their junior year. We recommend that they apply by the end of the fall semester of their senior year, but we will continue to accept applications in the spring and summer.
Transfer students who are currently enrolled at another college or university can apply at any time during their final term. Students can apply before they complete their current coursework – our admission decision will be based on their performance to date. Offers of admission will be contingent upon receipt of the final, official transcript and the successful completion of the student’s courses.
Students who are not currently enrolled in high school or college can apply at any time.
What happens next?
