Thank you for encouraging your students who are interested in the University of Minnesota to complete their applications by the November 1 priority deadline for freshmen.   Students who apply by this deadline will receive priority consideration for admission, the Honors Program and scholarships.  These applicants will know their admission decision by the end of January 2017. 


December 15 is our regular application deadline for freshmen.  Students who apply by this deadline will receive full consideration for admission.  However, Honors Program admission will be on a space-available basis and scholarships will be on a funds-available basis.  These applicants will receive a decision by the end of March 2017.
The deadlines for transfer students vary by college.  We recommend that your students complete their applications by the earliest application deadline.  College deadlines are listed here.

Additionally, international students can apply using the Coalition Application, which will be available in September 2016.  Students who apply using the University of Minnesota application should not also complete the Coalition Application. 

Students who list the University of Minnesota school code when they register to take the SAT or ACT exams in October 2016 and have their scores sent directly to us will still meet the priority deadline, even if their results arrive after November 1.  The University of Minnesota SAT & TOEFL code is 6874 and the ACT code is 2156.

For concerns about applications in progress, contact Ms. Jenny Mealey, Associate Director of International Admissions.
