General Admission Requirements

Prospective students must have graduated from a secondary school, possess an equivalent diploma, or have successfully completed the US General Education Development (GED) exam (minimum total score 225, no score below 40 on any of the five tests).

The minimum acceptable secondary school grade point average must be 2.50 or higher on the standard 4.0 scale. We also require a minimum composite score of 18 on the Enhanced American College Test (ACT) or a minimum of 400 on each individual score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). OHC requires the writing section for the SAT/ACT. Students who have already taken the SAT/ACT may satisfy the writing requirement by taking ACCUPLACER’s WritePlacer test, an affordable evaluation of writing skills, which is available at most colleges.

All students are expected to uphold the policies and standards of Ouachita Hills College as a Seventh-day Adventist institution. For more information about our policies and standards, please download our student handbook.

OHC reserves the right to deny admission based on its inability to meet the student’s educational needs and objectives.

Physical Exam Requirement 

All students are required to submit the results of a physical examination upon acceptance to Ouachita Hills College. You may submit documentation created and signed by your health practitioner, or you may download and print our physical exam form to be completed and signed by your health practitioner at your physical exam.

Admission of Transfer Students 

Students transferring from other recognized colleges or universities must have a combined cumulative grade point average of 2.50 or better. Students transferring to OHC with fewer than 24 semester credits (or 36 quarter credits) will be considered for admission on the basis of a combination of scores from their secondary school records and previous college work.
