Admissions Office

Applicants will need to have a number of documents sent to the Office of Admissions. These include transcripts and evidence of English-language proficiency. All support documentation should be either the original documents or notarized copies. Since the language of instruction and administration is English, documents that are not in English must be accompanied by certified English translations.

If you are applying for an undergraduate degree program—either as a first-year applicant or as a transfer student—you will need to submit the following material:

  • A completed undergraduate admissions Application Form
  • High school Diploma from an accredited high school or foreign secondary school equivalent
  • Official Diploma, transcripts, and certificates of all secondary and post-secondary schools attended
  • Evidence of proficiency in English
  • The essay that is included in the application form outlining your goals and reasons for studying a program at Hellenic American University
  • Α Recommendation letter
  • One e-photo
  • An in color copy of the applicant’s passport/National Identity Card
  • A non-refundable application fee of €30/$30

SAT and ACT scores, although not required, will assist your acceptance decision.

Making sure that the material you submit is accurate and complete will help you avoid unnecessary delays in the admissions process. All applications and support materials are sent to Hellenic American University and a copy remains with the Hellenic American College. The Office of Admissions does not return application materials to the applicant once they have been submitted.
