ENROLLMENT REQUIREMENTS
SUBMIT PROOF OF HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION
Successful completion of secondary school/high school graduation is a University of Minnesota enrollment requirement. In order to fulfill the University of Minnesota policy for proof of high school graduation, you must provide the Office of Admissions with an official copy of your graduation
certificate and/or final secondary school transcript and/or leaving exam results along with official English translations by January 15, 2022.
• Proof of high school graduation may include exam results such as, but not limited to, IB, A-level, WAEC, HKDSE, SPM, and CISCE/CBSE. Examples of official documents and the submission instructions can be found on the Office of Admissions website at z.umn.edu/officialdocs.
• If you have completed a GED program, we require that you provide an official copy of your GED certificate.
• If you have obtained an Associate of Arts degree from a U.S. college, we will require an official copy of your final
transcript with completion of an Associate of Arts degree listed on the document. Note: We may not accept Associate of Science degrees as satisfying our high school graduation requirements.
All documents not issued in English must be in the original language and include a certified, true English translation. Official documents are those that are original or are attested copies of original academic documents mailed in a sealed, stamped school envelope directly from the secondary school or examining board. A scanned or electronic copy of an official document is considered unofficial.
SUBMIT OFFICIAL FINAL COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY TRANSCRIPTS
Submit your official, final transcripts (with English translation, if necessary) directly to the Office of
Admissions by April 15, 2022 from all colleges or universities that you have attended, even if no credit
was earned. Once transcripts are received, we will post transfer credits on the Transfer Record of Articulated Courses (TRAC) report. This report will show the courses and total credits transferred, the courses that did not transfer, as well as how the transfer courses will fulfill any of the University’s Liberal Education (LE) requirements.
When you attend Transfer Student Orientation, you will receive an Academic Progress Audit System (APAS) report that shows how your transfer courses may have fulfilled any college or major requirement in order to complete your degree. Note that your international credits may not transfer as 1 to 1. Your courses will transfer as “T” (transfer for passing) or “F” (fail) and the grades that you received in the course will not show on your APAS report or on your transcript. You may need to supply additional information before you will know if a course you have taken will meet any LE or major requirements. Learn more about international transfer credit evaluations at z.umn.edu/InternationalTransferCredit.

IMPORTANT: If you do not complete this requirement by the stated deadline, you will have a MD hold placed on your account, which prevents you from registering for classes.
