Considering applying to PUC? We’re happy you are! Here are some things you need to do before you are officially a Pioneer. 

Have the Required GPA

If you’re a high school senior with top-notch grades, you can get early acceptance to PUC based on the work you’ve done freshman through junior year of high school. If this doesn’t apply to you, you must have graduated from a secondary school with an unweighted GPA of at least 2.5 to be accepted to PUC. Make sure you do before beginning the application process.

Order and Submit Transcripts

You need to order all transcripts from high school, and or any previous colleges you have attended. At first, unofficial transcripts will be fine, but you will need to eventually submit an official copy, showing graduation before the start of college courses. Official college transcripts from all prior colleges except PUC must be provided before the last two weeks of the first term at PUC. Email transcripts to admissions@puc.edu or mail to: The Admissions Office at Pacific Union College, One Angwin Avenue, Angwin, CA 94508

Send in SAT or ACT Scores

PUC’s school codes are 0362 (ACT) and 4600 (SAT). There will be a submission box for this on the application page. 

Submit Application

Visit puc.edu/apply to fill out the information that both the school and you need for your major, scholarships, campus life, and more. Remember to note the passwords you will submit, as it is a hassle if you forget them, and make sure that all the information you submit is correct.

Contact Admissions Office

Wait a day or two to make sure your application has been processed before emailing admission@puc.edu.

Once you have completed all these steps, sit back and wait to be contacted for acceptance at this great school!
