How do students enroll?

A single application form may be used to apply to any of the 32 Minnesota State Colleges and Universities institutions. Minnesota two-year colleges have a policy of open admission, which means that anyone with a high school diploma or a GED may enroll. Minnesota state universities generally accept students who either have graduated in the top half of their high school class or have scored a 21 or higher on the ACT college placement exam. If they took the SAT exam, they can be admitted by earning a combined score of 1,000.
