Ready. Set. Apply.
Ready to take the next step toward realizing your goal of earning a business degree from a top-ranked University?
Students who wish to pursue a business major at the Daniels College of Business must first apply to and be accepted by the University of Denver. Then, in the fall of their sophomore year, students apply to Daniels through a secondary admissions process.
This secondary admissions process allows Daniels to continue to offer strong student-faculty interactions, relatively small classes and the academic quality for which we’re known by limiting admittance to high-achieving and motivated students. Application cycles occur every quarter.
A small number of exceptional students may be granted direct admission to Daniels when accepted to the University of Denver, but most students are required to follow the secondary admissions process.
Competitive Selection Process
The selection process is competitive, and admission is not guaranteed. Daniels looks for well-rounded students and embraces diversity and inclusive excellence to create a rich and engaged learning community.
Students who are not admitted on their first attempt may apply one more time, provided their improved qualifications warrant a second consideration. Undergraduate advisors can help you develop contingency plans (i.e., alternative majors pursued in conjunction with a business minor) in case you are not admitted to Daniels.
