Application Review
When reviewing applications, we consider each student's academic curriculum rigor and grades earned. We give special attention to honors, Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate and dual-enrollment courses. We also look for students who demonstrate leadership ability, a commitment to service and community involvement, exemplary talents, and diverse experiences.
As part of the application review, Christopher Newport requires an essay of no fewer than 250 words so we can consider your writing skills and the aspects of your background and personality that you wish to add to your application. We use standardized tests as evaluative measures, unless a student chooses to apply test-optional. Students may submit scores from the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), American College Test (ACT) or Classic Learning Test (CLT).
Admission Interviews
We strongly encourage any high school senior planning to apply to Christopher Newport to interview. This personal interaction is an important part of the application process. It can be a great way to enhance your admission application and receive a personalized introduction to CNU. We want to meet you one-on-one to learn about you — your qualities, passions, experiences and goals that we cannot discern from the credentials you submit with your application. An interview is required for Honors and PLP applicants.

Students Say
Christopher Newport University invites students to become part of a "vibrant community," one that's truly "invested in the well-being and growth" of all undergraduates who attend. Indeed, CNU students are privy to both "strong academics and [a] very strong support system." Many individuals here also appreciate that there's a "focus on undergraduate research," noting how easy it is "to ask a professor if you can join them." Additionally, they are quick to mention that "service...and study abroad opportunities" abound as well. And they certainly benefit from "small class sizes" too, which allows "for more personal attention from professors." The faculty here "make a strong effort to get to know you and create a relationship with you while [you're] in their class." In turn, "this... makes it easier to ask for help when you need it and/or gives you a faculty member you can always reach out to." It's also abundantly clear that "their passion is teaching students, and they are very good at it." As this grateful undergrad illustrates, "They get more excited about my accomplishment[s] than I do and are always an ear when needed." Some may even go as far as stating that "professors at CNU are the strongest asset of this university."

ROI & Outcomes
Students Say
The tagline of Christopher Newport University’s Center for Career Planning says it all: “You Get Jobs by Talking to People.” That’s what you get here: through job fairs, career events, and proximity (the school is “located near some big companies who offer internships”), nearly 3,000 employers visit each year. That’s especially impressive when you consider the total enrollment is only around 4,500 students. CNU also makes a point of the “four pillars” of opportunity: internships, study abroad, undergraduate research, and community engagement. Especially strong students with high GPAs, can also apply for the selective President’s Leadership Program—a four-year focus on experiential learning that teaches them “how to be a better student, person, and employee in the future.” Per the school’s outcomes for the class of 2019, only 3% of its graduates are still looking for a job, and the rest have a median starting salary of $56,300 a year.

Students Say
Students at Christopher Newport speak highly of their "driven and friendly" peers. It's easy to understand why. The vast majority "are super optimistic and outgoing people who love to get involved in organizations both on and off campus." They also tend to be "overwhelmingly kind," but share "a strange unspoken expectation for all students to present themselves as more formal." You'll often see students "go out of their way to open doors and smile at strangers." But don't worry; their kindness is no less authentic! "While walking to class you quickly see friends or classmates, and nobody is afraid to wave or ask how your day is going." Although a few individuals do caution that the university is a "predominantly white institution," and it can feel as though "most students come from the Northern Virginia or Richmond area," rest assured, even if you don't fit that mold, you'll still find everyone is "very respectful" and "welcoming community." As this undergrad sums up, "The student body at Christopher Newport is the...most supportive network any student can ask for. It is truly a community."

Overview
From The School
Location
Located in Southeastern Virginia, Christopher Newport is in the heart of one of the most historic – and beautiful – areas of the United States, convenient to Williamsburg, Busch Gardens, Chesapeake Bay and Virginia Beach. Three airports are close by and so is an Amtrak station. The university is nestled in a suburban area and a short walk to the James River, hiking trails, and history and art museums.
Campus Facilities & Equipment
Matching Christopher Newport's strong academic reputation is the beauty of campus a place where students learn in classrooms and labs equipped with the latest technology, and play out their dreams on the stages of the Ferguson Center for the Arts. It was designed by the firm of acclaimed architect I.M. Pei. Since its opening in 2005, more than two million people have attended performances by world-renowned entertainers. An adjoining fine arts center is under construction.
The Paul and Rosemary Trible Library provides an unbeatable atmosphere for research, learning and scholarly interaction. Einstein's Café on the ground floor is a hub of campus activity.
Christopher Newport has nationally acclaimed athletic facilities and recently opened a new lacrosse and field hockey stadium. Nearly 4,000 students live in award-winning residence halls and apartment suites with all the amenities and comforts of home. Every residential room has high-speed internet, satellite cable TV and electronic room access. All rooms are equipped with a microwave and mini-refrigerator or have kitchen access. Residents of on-campus apartments have their own bathroom and an in-unit washer and dryer.
Off-Campus Opportunities
Christopher Newport students participate in internships in Newport News, Norfolk and nearby communities, home to NASA, Langley Air Force Base, Canon, Sentara Health Care and numerous other nonprofit, government and private sector employers. Students also are offered research opportunities at Jefferson Lab, the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science national laboratory, where scientists utilize the lab's unique particle accelerator to probe the most basic building blocks of matter.

Students Say
Christopher Newport's modest size belies a campus that's always abuzz with activity. "The fact that [it is] a smaller campus does not mean there are fewer opportunities to be involved." With "over 200 clubs and organizations at CNU" and "students are always going to events put on by their student organizations or to ones put on by our Campus Activities Board." Importantly, these clubs run the gamut; there's everything from "the student-run farmers market and sustainability commission" to "CNU Survivor...a club [that] mimic[s] the show Survivor on [CBS]." There are also many opportunities to "volunteer at local community sites." Moreover, it's common for students to "fill their days by working on campus." One undergrad explains, "CNU has a lot of job opportunities for students that allow us to study and work simultaneously."
Undergrads here love taking advantage of the nice weather as well. In the "warmer seasons a lot of students will fill the many lawns of the campus with frisbees, lacrosse sticks, footballs, etc." Then again, it's easy to get a break from campus life if you need. In fact, it's part of a classic CNU tradition. "One signature activity here at CNU is watching the sunset at a location called Lions Bridge. It's roughly a 30-minute walk from campus and a 10minute drive to watch the beautiful pinks and oranges set over the coast." No matter oncampus or off, "there always seems to be fun things to do."
