Minerva University is intentionally designed to develop emerging leaders, problem-solvers, and entrepreneurs committed to a safe, sustainable and equitable future.
Minerva University, named the World's Most Innovative University by World’s Universities with Real Impact (WURI) for two years in a row, offers a transformative education for intellectually curious and motivated students worldwide. Minerva’s undergraduate program blends an interdisciplinary curriculum highlighting practical and applied skills, an immersive global residential experience with project-based learning, and a diverse student body from 100+ countries, united by a mission to make the world a better place. Designed to develop the leaders and problem solvers of our future, our students spend four years traveling the world in a diverse cohort, with academic experiences powered by technology combined with on-the-ground experiential learning.
Admission to Minerva University is merit-based, assessing academics, extracurricular achievements, and multidisciplinary thinking rather than standardized tests. Minerva is committed to affordability, offering financial aid options including low-interest loans, on-campus employment, and scholarship grants for qualified candidates. Minerva University holds accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges/Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC).
Minerva strives to develop problem-solvers, entrepreneurs, and wise leaders from around the globe and weave them together as one community to address the most significant challenges facing humanity. We transcend borders and challenge students to step outside their comfort zones and into projects and experiences designed to expand their critical thinking, life and career skills, all while building their global networks.
A Minerva education is fully active and structured for intellectual growth. Small, interactive seminars guided by expert faculty drive collaborative learning, while students reside and study in cosmopolitan hubs like San Francisco, Seoul, and Berlin, participating in hands-on projects with local organizations.
