Test-Optional Admissions

Step 3: Sign Up for an Optional Interview
An interview is a great way to explore how Lawrence could be the perfect fit for you. Plus, it gives us a chance to learn more about your goals and interests!
Step 4: Double-Check Additional Requirements
- Conservatory of Music Applicants: Find out what’s needed for Conservatory admissions and auditions.
- Transfer Students: Learn about the requirements for transferring to Lawrence.
- International Students: Check the application details for international applicants.
Step 5: Track Your Application
Once you’ve submitted your application, you’ll be able to track its status and see if anything is missing through your applicant portal. It’s the easiest way to stay updated on the process!
