Admissions
Homeschool Students
At MVNU, we understand homeschooling and we support it. We've got small class sizes and caring faculty mentors. But more than that, we appreciate the homeschool journey because many of us have chosen it for our own families. You won't find a more "homeschool friendly" environment than MVNU.

A student must submit an application to MVNU and send their home school transcript. Transcripts may be sent via mail to Traditional Admissions Office, 800 Martinsburg Road, Mount Vernon, OH 43050; emailed to mvnu.applications@mvnu.edu; or faxed to 740-393-0511. ACT or SAT scores can be submitted, if available.
For traditional students enrolling, MVNU has implemented a test-optional review process for admission to the university. This means applications are considered without standardized test scores. An official copy of the high school transcript is required, as GPA and the types of courses taken are used as part of the application review process.
NOTE: Specific academic programs, courses and some scholarships may require an ACT/SAT score to be submitted.
