How does the Providence College Office of Admission evaluate applications?
The review for admission to Providence College has always been holistic in nature and considers a number of different factors. The Committee on Admission weighs each student’s academic record (evidenced by the strength of the curriculum and the grades received), the extracurricular profile, the required essay, two letters of recommendation and any other information that a candidate chooses to share. The consideration of academic preparation and the personal fit to Providence College is essential in our effort to shape each entering class.
