Important Reminders
Official ACT/SAT scores must come directly from ACT/College Board. Scores reported on your high school transcript will be used for admission decisions, but acceptance to the University will not be complete until official scores of the date you received the highest composite score are received from ACT/College Board.
If you have earned any college credit or dual credit while attending high school, you must request each college or university from which credit has been earned to send an official transcript to the Office of Admissions, apply@hadeslo.com.
Student copies of transcripts or personal copies of test results do not constitute official records or copies.
