Prior to applying to Principia, applicants are expected to have relied on Christian Science for all their needs, including physical healing, and they should have regularly attended a Christian Science church and/or Sunday School for at least six months.

Principia also expects community members, including students, to uphold community standards beginning six months prior to enrollment at the College.
