Test Preferred for Fall and Spring 2023-2024

We accept SAT, ACT, and/or CLT standardized test scores. If your scores are not included on your official high school transcript, you may request them directly from the College Board (SAT), the American College Testing Program (ACT), or the Classical Learning Test (CLT).

Covenant's college code numbers are 6124 for the SAT and 3951 for the ACT. Students planning to pursue a teacher certification program, either BA or MAT, should understand that the SAT or ACT may fulfill certain program requirements that the CLT currently would not.

International students: If your first language is not English and/or you are unable to take the SAT, ACT, or CLT, you will need to submit the TOEFL or IELTS instead.

Please have an official score report sent to Covenant (college number 6124). We require a minimum total score of 90 (Internet-based) for the TOEFL and a minimum or 7 for the IELTS.

The academic reference form and/or letter of recommendation should be completed by a teacher in one of the following subjects: English, foreign language, humanities, math, science, or social science. The reference should be able to attest to your academic performance and classroom engagement. If your reference chooses to submit a letter of recommendation, it should be completed on official school letterhead and sent to the Admissions Office. Please note: references should not be related to the applicant.

You will provide contact information for your Academic Reference within your application and we will email the online form along with instructions for uploading a letter of recommendation to your chosen reference. If needed, your reference may instead complete this pdf version of the academic reference form.

The christian faith reference form and/or letter of recommendation should be completed by your pastor, elder, church leader, or youth leader.
