Applications for admission from those who have been schooled at home are welcomed. The UNH Manchester admissions criteria for home-schooled students are the same as for those students who receive their diploma through the local public school system or through a traditional private secondary school.An interview with an admissions officer is strongly encouraged so that we may become more familiar with your academic experiences and you may be advised of our application procedures. Please contact the Office of Admissions early to ensure adequate time for admission planning and application processing.

Standardized Testing

We require submission of either the SAT or the ACT for Bachelors Degree consideration. A standardized test score is not required for Associates degree consideration.
When you apply for admission, we will ask you to send us an official copy of your transcript. If you choose to enroll at UNH Manchester, you will need to provide documentation of successful completion of your secondary level studies in the form of a final transcript, a General Equivalency Diploma (GED), or a certificate of completion from your local school district or state board of education. If your home school program does not provide a “diploma” please feel free to contact us to determine the final documentation we will require before your enrollment.
