Freshman Nursing Application Deadline!
Freshman students interested in applying to the Nursing program must have a completed file by December 15th. Your file will be considered complete when we have received your application, high school transcript, SAT and/or ACT scores, and a personal essay. Although not required, we will also consider any recommendations or supporting documents.
Apply online with the Hartwick College Priority Application for admissions and merit scholarships. Hartwick College offers rolling admissions, and applicants will be notified of their admissions decision within two weeks of file completion. Once we have your Priority Application and high school transcript, your application is complete. Letter(s) of recommendation and the admissions essay are optional. You may submit these if you feel they will enhance your chances of admission, but you are not required to do so.
Hartwick is an SAT-optional college. You are not required to submit SAT or ACT scores. Please indicate on your Priority Application if you want us to use your standardized test scores for admissions or scholarship consideration.
NURSING APPLICANTS
All freshman nursing applicants are required to submit SAT or ACT scores and must complete their application by December 15th. Transfer nursing applicants are not required to submit standardized test scores. Transfer candidates applying to the Accelerated Summer Nursing Program must do so by March 1 and enroll by April 1 in order to begin the program in late May. More information on qualifications needed for this program are available here.
All applicants intending to major in nursing must declare their intention to do so following the list of Hartwick majors in this application.
If you have submitted your application online at the Common Application Web site, we require our Supplemental Form be filled out as well. You may submit this form electronically at the Common Application site or print out the form, complete it, and return to Hartwick (mail or fax). You may also apply using the Universal College Application.
If you prefer, you may access our printed version of the Hartwick College Priority Application for Admission and Merit Scholarships: First-Year (freshman), Transfer, or International.
If you elect to submit a recommendation, the Secondary School Guidance Counselor Recommendation form may be printed and given to your guidance counselor. The counselor would then submit this form along with an official high school transcript to the admissions office. The form and transcript can be mailed or faxed to us:
