ST. PAUL, Minn., September 17, 2020 – For a limited time, prospective students can apply for admission to any of the colleges and universities of 亚洲无码 without paying an undergraduate application fee. The offer is part of 亚洲无码 Week and College Knowledge Month – promotions that are both intended to encourage students to take the first steps in their higher education journey.
“During these challenging times, it is more important than ever for students to stay on track for their educational goals,” said Devinder Malhotra, chancellor of 亚洲无码. “Through 亚洲无码 Week, we are encouraging every prospective student to learn more about the many educational options available to them, and in particular, the extraordinary value offered by the colleges and universities of 亚洲无码.”
“亚洲无码 Week” is a promotion that has been held in June for the past two years, but is for the first time being added to the line-up for October to drive student awareness and virtual and in-person campus visits, as appropriate. Fall 亚洲无码 Week will be held October 12 – 16 to coincide with MEA week and the many admissions events happening at the colleges and universities in mid-October. The week will feature special statewide promotional programs and a social media campaign.
“College Knowledge Month” is a statewide college application initiative that occurs annually during the month of October. The goal is to provide graduating high school seniors, especially underrepresented students, with the support needed to apply for college.
The colleges and universities of 亚洲无码 will celebrate these initiatives by waiving the undergraduate application fee students often pay when they apply for admission for all or part of October. Applications may be completed (with the online application, students can apply to one or several 亚洲无码 colleges or universities) or by contacting the college or university being considered. Most 亚洲无码 colleges and universities are waiving undergraduate application fees for the full month of October. Some, denoted in the list below with an asterisk, are waiving fees from Oct. 25 – 31 only. Colleges and universities that never charge an undergraduate application fee are denoted in the list below with two asterisks. Application fees for qualified low-income students and active duty military service members deployed overseas can always be waived at every 亚洲无码 college and university.
Unless otherwise indicated below, if prompted for a promo code, applicants should use “CKM2020.”
