Limestone University

What is the accreditation of Limestone University?

Limestone University was institutionally accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) while operating. Institutional accreditation concerns the university as a whole; accreditation or approval for a particular professional program is a separate question.

Closure changes what applicants need to verify. Historical accreditation may matter when another college reviews completed Limestone coursework, but it does not make Limestone an available enrollment option or require a receiving college to accept every credit. Former students pursuing licensure should also check the requirements of the relevant licensing board and the status of their specific program when they attended.

What are the admission requirements at Limestone University?

Limestone University is closed and is not accepting new students. Its former first-year admissions requirements therefore should not be treated as instructions for a current application.

For context, the 2024-25 admissions reporting identified a secondary-school record and GPA as required. It classified SAT and ACT scores, recommendations, and class rank as neither required nor recommended, and identified TOEFL as required for applicants to whom that English-proficiency requirement applied. Limestone did not report an open-admission policy. It admitted 2,944 of 3,027 first-time applicants in the reported cycle, an acceptance rate of about 97%; that historical rate says nothing about admission to another institution.

What are the application fees and waivers at Limestone University?

There is no current Limestone University application fee to pay because the institution has closed and is not accepting applications. An older fee listing, if encountered online, should not be used to start a new application or make a payment.

Students applying to a different college after Limestone's closure need that college's own application-fee and fee-waiver rules. An application fee is distinct from an enrollment deposit, orientation charge, or tuition payment.

What types of ROTC programs are available at Limestone University?

Limestone University is no longer an enrollment route into Army, Air Force, or Navy ROTC. Prospective cadets should seek an operating college and verify whether it hosts a unit or permits cross-enrollment with one.

Hosting a unit and traveling to a partner institution for ROTC are different arrangements. Scholarship eligibility, participation rules, and eventual service commitments depend on the branch and program; historical references to activities near Limestone do not establish a current ROTC arrangement.

What are the requirements for transfer students at Limestone University?

Students cannot currently transfer into Limestone University. For students transferring from Limestone, admission to a receiving college and acceptance of Limestone credits are separate decisions made by that college.

A former student should obtain an official Limestone transcript through the institution's designated records custodian or transcript process and request a written, course-by-course evaluation from the prospective college. The receiving institution may also need course descriptions or syllabi, particularly for major requirements, labs, clinical work, or courses taken through an adult-learning format. Its own residency rules determine how many credits must be completed there to earn its degree.

What types of study abroad programs are available at Limestone University?

Limestone University no longer offers study-abroad enrollment or academic approval for new participants. Descriptions of past international opportunities do not establish a program that students can join now.

Former students who completed study abroad while enrolled at Limestone should keep documentation showing the course provider, transcript, and how the work was recorded by Limestone. A receiving college decides whether that work counts toward its degree and may evaluate provider credit differently from credit earned directly at Limestone.
