- Attended an MdS or ICP information session.

All students begin the admission process by attending a group information session. Afterward, timely admission requires close communication with an adviser.

Program for Individualized Learning (PIL)
PIL, founded in 1971, serves independent learners who wish to design and complete individualized study that incorporates a variety of learning resources and strategies, such as independent learning projects. PIL students work collaboratively with academic advisers and faculty throughout the University. Applications are reviewed by the program's admissions committee to determine whether the student's goals and PIL's approach to individualized learning is a good match. To arrange to attend an information session, call 612-624-4000, email cceinfo@umn.edu, or register online at http://www.cce.umn.edu/pil.
Bachelor of applied science degrees (BAS)
