Online Undergraduate Application

Each year, Clemson University receives more applications for admission from students than it can accommodate.  Therefore, admission is reasonably competitive.  A number of factors are taken into consideration in the review of an application.  The importance of the various factors, as well as external issues influencing enrollment, can vary over time.  Prospective students should feel free to contact the Office of Admissions with any specific questions regarding admissions requirements.
