We're excited you're about to take the first step in becoming a Kenyon student. We're here to help guide you through the application process and make it as easy as possible.
As you begin this process, our Preparing to Apply section may help answer some of your initial questions.
The application process is a little different whether you're a U.S. citizen (or permanent resident) or an international student. If you are applying to Kenyon as an international student, take a look at the process and forms you'll need for your application. We also have separate guidelines if you are interested in transferring to Kenyon.
As a first-year applicant, you have three application options: Early Decision 1, Early Decision 2 or Regular Decision.
You may be wondering, "What's the difference between Early Decision 1 and 2 and Regular Decision?" Early Decision 1 and 2 have earlier deadlines and provide an earlier binding acceptance decision. If you know that Kenyon is the college you want to attend, take a look at our Early Decision options to see what's right for you. Regular Decision deadlines allow you to keep all your options open.
If you have any questions about the admissions process, please contact the Admissions Office or contact the Admissions representative for your area.
