Outstanding candidates are evaluated on academic performance as well as recommendations, essays and admission interviews. 

We accept 100 plus students into our four-year Doctor of Optometry degree program each September.  In 2008, the College received 768 applications from qualified candidates.

Only those students who have a good chance of graduating and performing as competent and caring Optometrists, are admitted to our program.  The College takes great pride in its high rate of retention.

As a small College, we believe strongly in working with you and other students on an individual basis.  If you have any questions regarding the College or the admissions process, please contact us.
