Prior to arrival on campus or attending classes in the Fall, undergraduate students are required to provide proof of immunity to measles and all students are required to provide documentation that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Check out more details about immunizations here and submit your information via our Online Student Health Immunization Form. Please submit your immunization records no later than August 15th.

Complete Algebra Math Placement Exam 

• All first-year students are required to complete the algebra math placement exam no later than Friday, July 1.

You can learn more about math placement here.
  • For new first-year students who are coming to Seattle University with college-level coursework that may count toward SU math requirements, please contact your Academic Advisor to discuss whether you should complete the Algebra Math Placement Exam.
