Applicant guide

Simpson offers a free, roughly 15-minute application for homeschooled students. Submit an official homeschool transcript (courses, grades, credits, and graduation date) signed and dated by a parent or administrator — a template is available; send to transcripts@simpsonu.edu. Dual-enrollment transcripts must come directly from each college. Trail Life USA scholarships and a Christian Halls International partnership are available. There is no homeschool-specific test requirement.
