(Highland Heights, Ky.) – Northern Kentucky University is streamlining its student enrollment process.
Today, the university announced that it will be the first public university in the tri-state and Commonwealth of Kentucky to offer direct admission.
The innovative approach aims to expand access to higher education in the region by simplifying the enrollment process for prospective students, providing them with a straightforward pathway to securing their spot at NKU.
Under the direct admit program, qualified students will have the opportunity to bypass the application process and application fee and receive a direct offer of admission to NKU based on a predetermined criterion.
“The introduction of the Direct Admit Program reflects NKU’s commitment to fostering an inclusive learning environment by removing barriers to higher education,” says Dr. Ryan Padgett, associate provost for strategic enrollment planning and student success for the university. “By simplifying the admissions process – including removing the application and application fee – and offering a transparent pathway to enrollment, NKU hopes to empower students from all backgrounds to purse their academic aspirations.”
The program will launch on August 1 for students considering enrollment to NKU in the fall of 2025.
High school students with a GPA above 2.75 will be contacted about their direct admission into NKU.
