How to Apply as a First-Year Student

Applying to Franklin College

1. Complete the application. You may select either the online or Common Application. Applying to Franklin College is always free!
2. Send us your official high school transcript. You may mail it or your guidance office or Parchment may send it.
3. OPTIONAL: Send us your SAT or ACT scores. Our SAT code is 1228 and our ACT code is 1194. Franklin College will also accept SAT or ACT test scores that are listed on your high school transcript, sent directly from a school counselor or a copy of your score report that shows your full name. They do not have to be sent from the official testing agency.

Submitting an SAT or ACT score strengthens a student’s application for admission and can benefit consideration for additional scholarships.
