Undergraduate // Bachelor's Programs
Minerva offers a four-year, globally immersive, interdisciplinary undergraduate experience designed to prepare students to lead and solve complex global challenges.
Admission to Minerva’s undergraduate program is holistic, focused on how applicants think, not just what they know. The three-part application includes personal information and official documents, interactive challenges, and a chance to showcase meaningful achievements. Standardized test scores are optional and not required for admission.
Important: You may only submit one application. If you start your application through Minerva’s platform, please do not also apply via the Common Application. The Common App only replaces Part 1 of our process and offers no additional advantage.

Graduate // Master's Programs
Minerva’s graduate programs are designed for early-to mid-career professionals seeking to deepen their expertise and address complex global challenges. Students can continue working full-time while engaging in rigorous, applied coursework that builds practical skills. Offerings include the Master of Science in Decision Analysis (MDA) and the Certificate in Decision Analysis (CDA), a shorter, flexible option for those looking to strengthen their decision-making and analytical abilities without committing to a full degree.
The admissions process evaluates applicants based on curiosity, clarity of thinking, and readiness to thrive in a diverse, global cohort. It includes a short online form, transcript and resume submission, interactive exercises, and a live interview for select candidates.
