Step 4: You'll be notified of our decision.

Within 2 weeks of your interview, you are able to view the results on your Online Self-Service checklist, regardless of your application status.

Only once all entrance requirements and documentation submissions have been completed, then your application status will be updated and you will be informed of your application decision by KPU Admissions.
