Admissions Information for Parents

Welcome to Immaculata
Your son or daughter’s interest in Immaculata marks an important time as you plan for one of the most important experiences in their life. Your decision to consider Immaculata is one we will take very seriously. We believe a strong support system for both parents and students is critical in achieving academic and personal growth goals.
Graduating in four years
Your son or daughter may know exactly what their major will be. Or they may not have a clue. Experience shows that there are a lot of students in both camps, and that those in the former often change their minds before they graduate. With the national average now exceeding 60% of students needing more than 4 years to graduate, Immaculata is proud that nearly all of its undergraduate students graduate in 4 years. A great value for you.

Our location: A great place to get connected
At Immaculata, the resources on campus are just part of the story. Equally important is the incredible wealth of opportunity to be found nearby throughout the Philadelphia and Chester County area.
 
Great value at a great school
A college education is one of the biggest investments a family makes, and one of the most worthwhile. The lifetime earnings of a college graduate far exceed the earnings of those without a degree. And what an Immaculata degree adds to the quality of your student’s life, while harder to measure, is no less valuable.
Both merit- and need-based aid is awarded at Immaculata. During the 2008-2009 academic year, nearly 90 percent of students received some form of financial aid. Want one more reason Immaculata is a great value?

FIXED-RATE TUITION.  Whatever the tuition rate is for the student's first year will be locked in through their 4th year of study at IU. 
Immaculata’s admissions process is need-blind, which means that your ability to pay for Immaculata is not a factor in our admissions decision. Once your son or daughter is accepted, we'll help find the resources to finance an Immaculata education. 
 
Plan a Visit. We want to see you.
Come with your son and daughter and visit the campus. There’s lots of information in the Campus Visit section of this site. The Campus Visit Coordinator can tailor the visit to meet your goals. If you would like to visit a class, meet a faculty member or discuss financial aid, just ask!
