UMC Description

The University of Minnesota in Crookston, Minnesota, is a public, four-year university that offers Northern Minnesota exceptional undergraduate academics in a small, close-knit learning environment.

The university is known as one of the original “laptop universities,” and, as such, provides all its students with a notebook computer.

Unique to UMC are its tuition rates, which makes all credits above 13 per semester completely free. Students who take more than 13 credits per semester pay a flat tuition rate and take advantage of paying significantly less money per year. Both Minnesota and out-of-state residents receive this discount.

UMC is dedicated to making your college experience the best it can be. Numerous student clubs and organizations make getting involved with student life easy and fun, not to mention lead to networking opportunities at the local, state and national level.

The S.P.A.C.E., or Student Programming and Activities for Campus Entertainment, brings entertainment to campus, ranging from musicians to hypnotists to comedians. It also helps coordinate school dances and exclusive WOW (What’s on Wednesday) events.

Degree programs are available in a variety of disciplines in four main departments:

  • Agriculture and Natural Resources
  • Liberal Arts and Education
  • Business
  • Math, Science and Technology

Eligible students may receive the U Promise Scholarship, which consists of the U Promise Free Tuition Scholarship and the U Promise Middle Income Scholarship. Additional forms of financial aid include scholarships, grants, loans and work-study programs.

To begin the enrollment process, you can fill out a short questionnaire on the school’s website, after which an admissions counselor will contact you and provide you with the information necessary for applying.
