Be sure to complete your application in full, as an incomplete application could affect eligibility for Johnson & Wales scholarship programs. Additional information submitted after the initial application has been received will not be considered for additional scholarships. For U.S. students, eligibility for university need-based and federal aid is determined through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
In completing the application form, students must indicate the term in which they wish to enroll. Applications are accepted for terms beginning in the fall, winter and spring.
There is no deadline for submitting applications, but students are advised to apply as early as possible before their intended date of enrollment for full consideration, as some programs may become full.
Certain bachelor’s degree programs are selective and require submission of an application at the end of the associate degree program before acceptance into a program. Students should check program descriptions if they are interested in applying for both an associate and a bachelor’s degree program.
After completing the application form, students are responsible for requesting that their high school guidance office forward to the university an official copy of the secondary school record for admissions consideration.
When possible, Johnson & Wales University would prefer to receive the applicant’s high school transcripts at the same time as the application for admission. Transfer students must also submit official transcripts from all high schools and colleges attended.
Students applying for admission to a continuing education program at JWU’s Providence or Denver campuses should refer to these catalogs for admissions information.
In accordance with the applicable Federal and State law, for students entering JWU who will need to participate in a food service internship, the student must be 18 years old to participate in the internship, unless the student obtains an acknowledgement from the proposed internship site acknowledging that the student is not yet 18 years of age and stating that the student will not engage in any “particularly hazardous occupation.”
