Admissions
Two-year campuses of the Montana University System (community colleges and colleges of technology) maintain an open admissions policy. High school graduation (or the equivalent) or the recommendation of a student's high school principal and proof of immunization are required for admission.
The four-year programs of the Montana University System have admissions criteria, including completion of a college preparatory core. There are additional criteria for admission to four-year programs, which are described in these policies:
- 301 Admissions; General
- 301.1 Admissions Requirements; In-state Undergraduates
- 301.2 Admissions Requirements; Out-of-state Undergraduates
- 301.3 Admissions Requirements; Graduate Students
- 940.1 Residency Policy [See: Student Guide to Montana Residency Policy]
In addition, the Board of Regents requires that students entering four-year programs demonstrate proficiency in mathematics. Beginning in 2007, students will also have to demonstrate writing proficiency for full admission to a four-year program. More information on preparing for college can be found here:
