Admissions Office: Freshmen Admissions

You are just beginning a very important journey, and we're ready to help you along in the process. The first step is applying to R-MC and gathering all the items that make up a complete, successful application. Randolph-Macon's admissions counselors review each application for a sense of the applicant’s goals, strengths and personality. We assess each student based on four main components:

• Secondary School Record: This is the most important piece for us.  We look at the quality of the student’s work, the strength of the course selection and the student’s academic standing among his or her peers.
  
• Standardized Tests: We review each applicant’s SAT or ACT scores across each testing category.
  
• Recommendations: We’re interested in what each applicant’s counselor, teacher, principal or headmaster has to say.
  
• Personal Characteristics: Our students tend to be leaders, appreciate a strong liberal arts education and are very involved in extracurricular activities. We look for these valuable characteristics in Randolph-Macon applicants.
