Remove the stress of your senior year in high school.
By applying Early Decision to HPU, your admission decision will be delivered to you as soon as February 15, making your senior year stress-free! You can enjoy the final months of high school with your friends and teachers knowing you’ve already found your perfect university.
Be first to choose your favorite housing option.
First, you should know there are no bad places to live at HPU, which is ranked nationally for best college dorms in America by The Princeton Review. But you want your top pick of those dorms. Early Decision applicants receive first priority in the housing registration process.
Get exclusive parking privileges close to your dorm.
Not only does HPU allow you to have a car as a freshman at no additional cost, but as an Early Decision applicant, you will have access to the best parking areas near your dorm. These areas are designated exclusively for Early Decision students for your entire freshman year.
Skip the long lines and move in early.
You’ll have exclusive access to move in a day earlier than other students. Your parents will appreciate this too!
Priority access to building your fall class schedule.
Want to craft the schedule that’s best for you? Early Decision students have first priority to build their fall class schedule.
Priority consideration and early notification for HPU Fellows Programs.
HPU Fellows Programs are scholarship-driven, academic programs with limited spots. By applying Early Decision, you receive priority consideration AND early notification. You’ll be among the first to be considered for and the first to be notified about your place in a Fellows Program, which surrounds students with accomplished, like-minded individuals.
Early access to your Success Coach:
No major? No problem! Student Success Coaches begin reaching out to Early Decision students as early as December. Already know your major? Your Success Coach will be selected because of their expertise in that academic area, and you will meet them at Freshman Orientation. They will help you chart a course to ensure you are ready for your first semester and beyond.
Secure your exclusive Learning Excellence coaching session.
Do you want to start college with your best foot forward? Then you’ll need to apply study tips and time management techniques that are proven to work. You’ll receive access to three hours of Learning Excellence Education Consulting provided early in the fall semester and be ready to tackle college from the start!
Priority access to global leaders on campus.
HPU’s Access to Innovators Program regularly brings the co-founders, CEOs, and leaders of Apple Computer, Netflix, Google, Morgan Stanley, Domino’s, The Dallas Mavericks and many others to campus to mentor students. As an Early Decision student, you’ll have priority access and notifications of their visits during your freshman year. You’ll be able to meet and learn from more global leaders in your first year on campus than students at other colleges meet during their academic journey!
Ignite your path to success.
Students and parents love the fact that 99% of HPU graduates are employed or enrolled in graduate school within 180 days of graduation from HPU – 14 points higher than the national average! While you’ll have access to HPU’s impressive Office of Career and Professional Development throughout all four years, Early Decision applicants receive complimentary access to an exclusive Career Accelerator Dinner (focused on Life Skills and Leadership) held inside 1924 PRIME with career office leaders.
Receive your swag package early!
Early Decision families will receive a special HPU swag package before all other admitted students that includes your HPU t-shirt, stickers and more. It provides extraordinary ways to begin celebrating your future at High Point University.
Preferred date selection and guaranteed access to select HPU events.
HPU is in high demand and can only accommodate so many visitors! Early Decision families can choose their preferred date for events like Orientation, Scholarship Weekends and Admitted Student Weekends. As a bonus to this benefit, your family will also receive early access to HPU Family Weekend. HPU Family Weekends are highly beloved and traditionally exclusive to current, enrolled families only. By applying Early Decision, you could even attend our Spring Family Weekend to get to know the HPU family early and enjoy the much-anticipated Family Weekend Concert!
Increase your chance of acceptance to HPU.
When you apply Early Decision, you increase your chances of being admitted and receive priority consideration. The first students to apply are selected from a smaller pool of applicants and are the first to receive their HPU decision.
Priority scholarship consideration.
Are scholarships important to your college decision? Because Early Decision students are the first to be admitted, they’re also the first to be considered for HPU scholarships and the first to know which scholarship opportunities they qualify for.
