Gustavus Select Application, Part 1
To start your Gustavus application for 2025 enrollment, fill out Part 1 below.
Part 1 takes
less than five minutes
and there's no fee.
Finish your application
by using the
Gustavus Select Application
or the
Common App
.
If you've
already submitted
the Gustavus Select Application or the Common App, do
NOT
continue — there's no reason to do Part 1.
If you are a
transfer
or
international
student, do
NOT
use this application.
Instead, apply to Gustavus using the
Common App
, which asks some additional questions that will benefit you in this process.

I plan to enroll as a:
First-Year Student (Domestic)
First-Year Student (International)
Transfer Student (Domestic or International)
Post-Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) Student
Dual Degree or Graduate (Master's) Student
If you are a
transfer
or
international
student, you
CANNOT
use this application. Instead, apply to Gustavus using the
Common App
, which asks some additional questions that will benefit you in this process.
All PSEO students should apply for admission, including high school juniors and seniors, full-time and part-time.
If you are already taking PSEO courses at a different college and planning to enroll at Gustavus after you graduate from high school, you are considered a
First-Year Student
. Choose that option to apply, not PSEO.
If you are a
dual degree or graduate
student (applying for the Master's of Athletic Training), do
NOT
use this application. Instead, apply to Gustavus using the
ATCAS
, which asks some additional questions that will benefit you in this process.
