Applying to Missoula College

Planning to get an associate’s degree, looking for workforce training or preparing to transfer to a bachelor’s program later? This is the spot for you. Walk through the application process with us and get the scoop on what you can expect.

Let’s start simple: What kind of applicant are you?

First time as a college student? Awesome — you’re in the right place. If you’ve been enrolled concurrently in high school and college, or if you’ve completed fewer than 12 or more college-level credits, you’re still in this group too. You’ll apply for freshman admission.

Step one: Start your application to Missoula College

You can apply online, through the Apply Montana Portal (if you are a Montana resident) or using the Common Application.

Step two: Submit your official high school transcript, GED, or HiSET.

Once you have your official high school transcript, just send a copy over to Missoula College, and make sure it shows your date of graduation and final GPA. And if you’ve got other documentation, like a GED or the HiSET, that’s good by us — just send it along!
