Start Your Application

You can fill out the application at your own pace. You have the option to save your progress and come back to it later, even from a different computer. Before you send it in, be sure to review everything carefully!

Here are a few important points:

• Once you submit your application, you’ll receive information about any other requirements you need to complete for admission. Make sure to take care of these requirements and submit everything by the deadline.
• An email will be sent to you with your Student ID number once your application is processed. Additionally, after you submit your application, you should expect to receive a letter from Northland within two weeks.
• If your application is not accepted, you can refer to the Northland Admissions Procedure for details on how to appeal the decision.

Send Us Your High School Transcript or GED

Make sure to send your high school transcript or GED certificate directly to the Northland admissions office. Some high schools may require a signed consent of release form before they send out your transcript, so be sure to check what is needed. If you need a GED transcript, you can look up the requirements for your state online to find out how to request it to be sent to Northland admissions.

Do you have Transfer Credits? If you’ve taken classes at another Minnesota State College or University and want to transfer those credits to Northland, you’ll need to fill out an eTranscript Request Form. This helps us evaluate your previous coursework. If you have other transcripts from different schools, please send those in as well. Lastly, remember to complete and return the immunization form, which is required by Minnesota law for colleges.
