Online Student Entrance Requirements

What Online Students need to know

At Emmanuel University, we understand that the traditional college schedule and on-campus format doesn’t work for everyone. Our online programs are designed to make education accessible for non-traditional students—especially those who are working, raising a family, or balancing other responsibilities.

If you’ve been considering finishing your degree but have struggled with commuting to campus, arranging childcare, managing work commitments, or fitting classes into a busy schedule, our online programs may be the perfect solution for you.

Admission requirements for online programs are the same as our on-campus programs, with the exception of the transfer eligibility form for transfer students. Your Admissions Counselor will guide you through each step of the process and help you stay on track.

We’re here to support you as you take the next step toward completing your degree.
