Other top universities shelter you from the outside world. At Minerva, instead of being sequestered on an isolated campus, you will live in seven of the greatest cities on the planet. Rather than sitting passively in large lectures, your classes are all small, Active Learning seminars. Minerva also offers the most globally diverse student body of any university program, with 78% of your classmates coming from outside the United States.
At Minerva you have the optional benefit of earning a graduate degree at the same time you complete your undergraduate studies. Building on the practical knowledge you gain in our rigorous liberal arts program, the Master’s in Applied Arts & Sciences incorporates an intense focus on research and collaborative problem-solving. Plus, when you transfer credits from another institution, the path to an advanced degree is even shorter.
