Thank you for your interest in Dallas Baptist
University! We welcome applications from any individual seeking
a Christian education with high academic standards. In addition
to the genuine motivation for study, the applicant's maturity,
integrity, and attitude are all taken into consideration by
the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. The University's desire
is for students to come to DBU for an education and not just
for a degree.
First year Applicant
DBU
invites applications from qualified students who have graduated,
or expect to graduate, from an accredited secondary school.
Students who apply as regular first year enrollees must have
graduated from high school or have satisfactorily completed
the General Educational Development examination (GED). Students
who were educated at home are also invited to apply and are
subject to the same qualifications and requirements.
A personal interview with an admissions counselor is recommended
for all students entering college for the first time. A campus
visit is recommended, but not required. DBU hosts President’s
Day Patriot Preview, Columbus Day Patriot Preview, and Patriot
Weekend: A Preview of Dallas Baptist University each fall
and spring semester to provide information on academic programs,
campus life, financial aid, and scholarships, as well as to
conduct scholarship interviews and campus tours for prospective
students and their parents.
