The university offers ACT on Campus testing for incoming undergraduate students who want to take the ACT, even though they have already applied or been admitted to Ashland University. The scores are reported to Ashland University only, and they will not be sent to the student’s high school or any other academic institution.
To participate:
- Select an exam date and complete the ACT Scheduling form.
- Pay a $70 non-refundable/non-transferable ACT fee.
- Receive a confirmation email from the AU Student Accessibility Center that you are registered.

“I loved the way the entire community made me feel welcome from my very first visit—from the professors in my program, to my eventual teammates, to the random students who said hi to me in passing. It was a great first experience that really stuck with me when choosing which college to attend!”
