Admissions

• Efficiency is a priority here
  
  •  Most of MNU’s degree-completion, graduate and certificate programs are accelerated
  • Many programs offer online courses or are fully online
  • Tuition costs for most programs are competitive with area state universities
  • We create a graduation plan for you from the very beginning
  • If you are a transfer student, articulation agreements with community colleges allow us to accept your credits “in bulk”
• The quality of your degree is important
  
  • Along with our HLC accreditation, we have pursued, and hold, several industry-specific accreditations, lending more weight to your degree
  • Our courses are taught by faculty and instructors who have real-world experience

Payment plans, scholarships and military discounts:

• The RISE Opportunity Scholarship, for many graduate and professional degree programs, is not based on financial need or GPA. Ask your admissions counselor for more information.
• Military/Veteran Discount for active military, veterans and their spouses. Veterans eligible for the GI Bill®, should contact the school certification officers: Tiffany Todd at 913.971.3625 or trtodd@mnu.edu
• Active Duty and drilling/active Reserve and NG eligible for the Army Tuition Assistance program should contact:
  The Cashier’s office, at 913.971.3295 or studentaccounts@mnu.edu.

MNU does not require a GRE or GMAT score for admission consideration.

Your chosen references will be emailed a form through the MNU application, so you will not need to obtain written documents yourself. With the references, you will want to enter the name, occupation and email address of the individuals you are using as references.

Please make sure that the email address you use is correct, and one that your references will check regularly, to ensure they receive the recommendation form in a timely fashion.

Here are some sample occupation titles, “Manager”, “Professor”, or “Supervisor”. An email will go to the people you identify, with log-in information. Each will enter their ratings, and they may also upload a letter of recommendation.

All official transcripts need to be sent to their respective Admissions Office at MNU. You may also submit unofficial transcripts to MNU for a preliminary unofficial review to determine whether you have missing prerequisites to complete.

No. The selection committee uses the personal statement in lieu of an interview.

Once your application is complete, it may take a couple of months (depending on where we are in the application cycle) before your application is reviewed by the committee. Once your application is reviewed by the committee, you will be notified by the admissions team via text and email regarding your acceptance status.

At times, students have not been able to start the program at the time when classes start for the cohort of students. You can contact the Admissions Department to request a delayed program start date. The details are outlined in our Admission Deferral Policy. If this applies to you, please review the detailed policy and process for deferring your start in our program.
