Undergraduate Admissions

We understand that the admissions process can be intimidating and overwhelming for students and families. That's why we have a team of dedicated professionals to assist prospective students. Lincoln University admission staff can help students successfully navigate the application, admission and enrollment process. 

High school seniors, transfer students and guidance counselors can connect with an admission counselor responsible for their school or geographic area online by scheduling a one-on-one meeting. Through these sessions, students will learn about the application process, academic programs, campus life, and student success resources. To see meeting options and to register, locate the appropriate admissions representative below.
