Admission
There is no application deadline. Indiana Tech has a rolling admission process, so apply at any time and we will be in touch to walk you through the process.
All students must submit an official transcript. SAT and ACT test scores are optional. An admission decision is based on meeting the GPA for the intended major.
You can schedule your visit online or call the Admissions Office at 260.422.5561, ext. 3103. The online portal gives you quick access to available days and times to visit.
Simply contact your high school guidance counselor to request your transcripts to be sent. To submit your SAT or ACT scores (optional), be sure to add the Indiana Tech school code to the registration form. Our SAT code is 1323 and our ACT code is 1208.
Students who are transferring math or English credit from a previous college or university are not required to take placement exams. Freshmen enrolling at Indiana Tech upon high school graduation will be required to take a math placement exam. Indiana Tech uses SAT and/or ACT scores to determine English placement and whether a reading placement exam will be required.
Any student who enrolled in a college course after graduating high school or earning a GED—regardless of the length of time enrolled—is considered a transfer student and must submit college transcripts in order to be evaluated for transfer credit.
Unofficial transcripts will be accepted to complete a transfer credit evaluation and for a provisional acceptance decision. However, you will be required to submit all final official transcripts to complete your admission file.
A transcript is considered official when it is sent directly from the high school or college in a sealed envelope containing the institution’s official seal or signature. A transcript is considered unofficial if it lacks the institution’s official seal or signature, if it is printed directly from your online student account, or if it is not received in a sealed envelope.
Generally, non-remedial, 100-level courses or above in which a student earns a C or higher are transferable to Indiana Tech. Courses may transfer in as required credits if we offer an equivalent course and the course is needed for your major, or they may transfer in as elective credits if we do not offer an equivalent course or it is not needed for your major. Different majors require different courses, so we cannot guarantee credit transferability for all courses. You can find the curriculum for all of our majors in our Academic Catalog.
Your transfer credit evaluation can be viewed on your my.IndianaTech.edu account. After logging in, click the “You’ve Applied” link, and then click the “Degree Audit Portlet” link. All college transcripts must be submitted before your evaluation will be completed.
Financial Aid

Indiana Tech is committed to providing an affordable education by offering financial assistance through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and scholarships. Achievement awards range between $2,500 and $15,000 for incoming freshman students and $3,000 to $7,000 for incoming transfer students. You can also calculate your achievement award and estimated financial aid offer using our Net Price Calculator.
The FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Filing the FAFSA enables Indiana Tech to determine financial eligibility for grants, loans, and additional scholarship opportunities. The deadline for Indiana residents to file the FAFSA is April 15.
You will receive a financial aid award letter in the mail, or you can view your financial aid awards at my.IndianaTech.edu by clicking the “Financial Aid” link on the left side of the screen. Please note that financial aid offers are not generated until you have been accepted to the university.
