who are dedicated to beingsuccessful at NDSU. Although

any student can be in thisprogram, we give conditionallyadmitted students priority to

participate.

The Office of Admission makesconditional admission decisions.

These decisions are typicallybased on high school GPA and

ACT/SAT scores. All conditionallyadmitted students are strongly

encouraged to participate in theRising Scholars Program during

their first semester at NDSU.
