First-Year Students: Apply Today

 

Start your Marquette application!

You can apply to Marquette using our application or the Common Application. Links to both applications are listed below. There is no preference of one application over the other, so feel free to apply using the application that's best for you. Take a moment to review the deadlines, required materials and additional notes on this page. We look forward to reviewing your application! 

 

Please note, first-year applicants seek to enroll as full-time undergraduate students at Marquette University. Any student enrolled in high school or any full-time-seeking student who has not earned postsecondary college credit may apply as a first-year student. High school students enrolled in college course work while in high school (dual enrollment) are also first-year applicants. 

International students (non-U.S. citizens) who match the characteristics above can apply as first-year students, but have unique requirements and should visit the Office of International Education for instructions.
