Talpiot does consider out-of-town applications from high school graduates who have obtained a High School Diploma with at least an 80% average.
Mature students are encouraged to apply to the Registrar, who will ensure that each application is given carefully individual consideration. Although there may be some flexibility in the academic requirements for mature applicants, a high school transcript and a resume of work experience must be included with any application. Letters of recommendation from past employers and from the applicant's rabbi must be included with the application.
In order to allow for the maximum flexibility with respect to freshman credits, Talpiot accepts a maximum of 30 CLEP credits towards specific credits within degree programs. Furthermore, NYU language exams may also fulfil some of these requirements.
Please note that the average cost of the CLEP and NYU credits that are available for transfer is between US$300 - 600.
