Information for Home-Schooled Applicants

Washington and Lee University is pleased to consider applications from home-schooled students. Given the unique nature of each student's curriculum, we suggest including the following to ensure an accurate and fair review of your application:

• Results from five SAT Subject Tests, preferably mathematics, history, science, foreign language and literature
• A detailed description of your curriculum, including a list of texts utilized
• A listing of all institutions attended
• An interview either on-campus in the Office of Admission or off-campus through our Alumni Admissions Program
• If available, two teacher recommendations from teachers other than family members (i.e. community college professor, summer program instructor, etc.)
• Please feel free to include any other recommendations in addition to those mentioned above, including letters from coaches, employers, religious advisers, etc

Again, we recognize that each student's home-schooling experience and application process will be different. If you should have any additional questions or require clarification do not hesitate to contact our office via email or telephone.
