1. Create your application account.

Enter your account information exactly as instructed on the form.
Click the 'Create My Account' button
Print or write down your user name and password for future reference when re-entering the system.

2. Fill out your application.
You are able to complete your application over several sessions in any order you wish. And you can access your application on any computer!

Navigate through the pages by clicking the 1,2,3,4,5 buttons found at the bottom of each page.
To save your information and continue working on the application at a later time, click the ‘Save this Page’ button at the bottom of the screen and close your browser.
To re-access your application to continue work on it, return to the application menu, select the application, and enter your user name and password when prompted.

3. Make corrections to your data.
You may see a Data Correction Required message when you move from page to page or click 'Submit'.
A Data Correction Required message appears if you have omitted a required field or entered data incorrectly. Review your data carefully, make corrections, and then proceed to 'Submit'.

4. Submit your application.
Check your application carefully. When you are satisfied with it and are ready to send it, click 'Submit' at the bottom of the last page. This saves your data in its final form and takes you to the payment page where you pay your application fee online.

Your application will not be processed until you pay your application fee and it is authorized (step 5).

5. Pay your application fee online.
On the payment page, you can pay your application fee by debit/credit card only. If you prefer to pay by check or money order, please download and print the paper application, or call 800-334-8448, or 888-ELON-LAW for law applications, to request a copy to be sent to you. Elon can only accept debit/credit cards as payment for applications submitted online.

Fill in all information, including the complete credit card number, expiration date, and card billing information.
Click the 'Submit this information' button.

6. Once payment is authorized, your application is on its way to the Admissions Office, and you can no longer make changes to it. If you need to supplement your application with additional or corrected information, please call the Admissions Office at 800-334-8448, or 888-ELON-LAW for law applications.

Security Information: Your debit/credit card information is encrypted during transmission from your browser to our server and during payment authorization. None of your debit/credit card information is stored in our database.

7. Once you have completed submission, a pdf copy of your application will be emailed to the address listed in your account. You can also access the pdf copy from the Review Your Activity section.

8. Close your browser program when you're ready to end your Web session.
This clears your password and secure connection.

Dashes are not required for phone numbers or your social security number.
For undergraduate applications, if your high school is not found in the city and state search, resubmit the search with only the state field completed. All the schools in that state will then be listed, and you should find your high school within that list.
Check your application over carefully before sending it!
For undergraduate applications, in addition to submitting your online application, we also require an official transcript, Counselor Evaluation form, and standardized test scores to complete your file. Please send these additional items as soon as possible.
For law school applications, in addition to submitting your online application with personal statements, you must take the LSAT, subscribe to LSDAS, submit a resume if available, and submit a minimum of two letters of recommendation through LSDAS or directly to the law school where the letters address fitness for Elon's particular program. Applicants should fill out the online application as completely and accurately as possible, erring on the side of full disclosure in all responses.

The web application server stores the information you enter under the private user name and password you establish.
Nothing you enter on an application form is sent to the Admissions Office until you transmit it. That means you can set up your account, fill out information on an application form, change it, and save it free of charge and without worry of disclosing information to Elon before you're ready.
You don't have to complete an application in one sitting. For example, you can start working on a web application at your library's computer facility, save your work, access the form at home on your personal computer, and continue working from there. Wherever you have access to the Web, you have access to the information you've saved.

Your data is transmitted securely over the Internet. The information you enter is encrypted and secure when you save it and when you send it. Although general data collected on the system may be used in statistical studies and reports designed to assist Elon with planning, any information bearing your personal identification is only disclosed to the Admissions Office.
