When will I know if I have been accepted?

Francis Marion Undergraduate Admissions has a rolling admissions policy. This means that as soon as your application packet is complete, a decision will be made regarding your admission status.

FMU’s final cutoff for undergraduate applications is always noon on the Friday before the start of classes. However, we advise that students apply well before those dates.
