Very Important Reminders You must meet all admission requirements, by the deadlines listed, or your admission will

Regularly log into myHumboldt and check your To Do List to see any additional documents or actions required.

HSU uses email as the official form of communication. It is your responsibility to read all emails from HSU. If you ever need to update your email address with HSU, you may do so in the Personal Information section of your myHumboldt homepage.

You will not be allowed to “make up” coursework during the summer. For example, if you get a ‘D” in English (or any other required course) in your senior year, and you no longer meet the minimum requirement for that subject area, we may deny your admission—you cannot take a summer course to make up any deficiencies.

Many applicants are provisionally admitted on the basis of self-reported courses, grades, and test scores. If your final official transcripts and test scores show that you do not meet the requirements for admission, your admission will be denied. If you know you will not meet all of your admission requirements, contact us as soon as possible to discuss your options.
