CLARK doesn’t want
YOU to worry about

We’ve made it easier for you.

We’ve eliminated our application fee.

Families across the globe are still experiencing the financial impact of the pandemic, and we want to make sure that everyone who wants to can apply to Clark in the coming year.
We are always eager to hear from you. Reach out with any questions or concerns; it’s our favorite part of our jobs. Write an email, pick up the phone, or schedule a campus visit — they are all good options.

We are staying test-optional. No tests, no problem. We’ve been test-optional since 2012. We will continue to review holistically — reading every word of every application at least two times.

No need to worry about a school system that changed to pass/fail or could no longer offer all of your elective courses. We read your transcript like a story about your academic growth — which cannot be reduced to one semester or a single GPA.
Merit aid at Clark is never awarded based on test scores. With or without standardized tests, you will receive the same consideration for all merit scholarships.

We’re continuing to meet 100% of demonstrated need for Early Decision. If you know Clark is your future home, we want to help you get here. We will meet 100% of demonstrated financial need for all students accepted under one of our two binding Early Decision plans. Your admissions and financial aid applications must be submitted by the deadline.
We will take your transcript as it comes.
