The goal of the Office of Admission is to admit students who have the ability to succeed at McMurry. McMurry University prides itself on academic excellence based on a strong faculty and a low faculty to student ratio.
Admission to the university is selective and based on the academic qualifications of the applicant without regard to sex, race, age, handicap, color, religious affiliation, or national origin. McMurry University retains the right to deny admission to any applicant. Admission requirements are subject to change.
Admission Application Deadlines
McMurry University is on a rolling admission schedule with priority based on file completion date.

Applications remain open until the first day of classes for domestic students each semester, but students are strongly encouraged to submit their application at least a month prior to the first day of classes. International students must be admitted to the university and submit an enrollment deposit by 30 days prior to the start of classes in order to be eligible to enroll.
