An education built on discussion and debate
Effective learning doesn't take place in a lecture hall — it requires active participation.
Minerva's unique seminar-based approach utilizes extensive discussion and debate to develop the very skills you need to thrive in a rapidly changing world: critical and creative thinking, and effective communication and interaction.
No SATs or other standardized tests
No personal essays
No application fee
Minerva's unique and exclusively meritocratic admissions process evaluates student potential rather than opportunity. As a result, the Minerva student body is the most diverse in higher education with ~80% of students coming from outside the United States.
Tuition is already a third of that at other highly-selective institutions, but Minerva goes further, offering need-based financial aid to all eligible, admitted students.
