General Application Information
EU Applications for admission are accepted from time to time throughout the year.
Each prospective student must complete only one online application.
Once your online application has been completed with the processing fee of $75, you will receive a temporary student number(STUDENT ID).
Receiving a student number does NOT imply that you have been accepted by Edwards University yet. Admission is a separate process that your application undergoes after being evaluated by the Admission Committee.
Applications will only be accepted for Distance / Online / Intensive Education until the traditional residential program is ready.
Simple and transparent rates. Tuition is to be paid a fixed amount per semester and there are no additional hidden fees. Have peace of mind planning around one number each term.
