IMPORTANT: Before you begin the online application, consider these items:

  • Have you done your homework to ensure that the HECUA program you’re applying to meets requirements necessary to collect major, minor, or general education credits? It’s important to meet with your academic advisor to ensure a smooth transfer of credits to your degree.
  • Students are encouraged to apply using this online application; however, some schools may have earlier deadlines and other requirements (e.g. higher GPA, different essay questions, more references, etc.) for off-campus study. Before you move forward with the HECUA process, ensure that you are confident in the application details sanctioned by your home institution.

  • HECUA accepts paper applications. Should you want to proceed with a paper application, simply download a PDF version of the HECUA PROGRAM APPLICATION (includes application information sheet & signature page); ACADEMIC REFERENCE FORM (a writable PDF that allows your professor to respond within the document)

    Mail completed application items to:
    HECUA
    2233 University Ave. W., Suite 210
    St. Paul, MN 55114
  • Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. You should know within a few weeks of having submitted a complete application whether or not you have been accepted to participate.

  • Finally, the online application is several pages long and must be completed in one session. You should review the PDF version of the program application to ensure that you're ready to answer each question. It’s recommended that you type out your essays in a Word document and/or save them elsewhere before you begin this online process.

Good luck with the process; let’s get started.
