Applicants
  • Many colleges have announced their plans to no longer require standardized test scores for applicants. COA has always been “test optional,” so standardized test scores (SAT or ACT) are never required of our applicants. 
  • If you’re unable to get a transcript from a prior school due to COVID-19 related closures, let us know—we will work with you. 
  • Beginning with the 2020-21 application cycle, there is no fee to apply for admission. 
Admitted/incoming students
  • Our most up-to-date news on the college’s plans can be found on the COVID-19 Response section of our website.
