Leadership Education Program Admission

You’ll complete one application to apply to Winona State Graduate Studies and your desired Leadership Education program at the same time. 

Students are also encouraged to apply for financial aid, including scholarships and graduate assistantships

Apply to a Leadership Education Program

The GRE is not required for graduate programs.

Application Deadlines 

Master’s and Education Specialist applications are due at least 3 weeks before classes begin. 

Incomplete Applications

You will be contacted by the office manager if you submit an incomplete application. 

Late Submissions

If you do not complete the application by the deadline, you can enroll as a graduate non-degree seeking student. You can attend as a non-degree seeking student for one term and complete a new registration agreement each term.

This status allows you to take courses in the Leadership Education Department before you apply and are formally accepted.

Up to 12 graduate credits that you earn as a graduate non-degree seeking student may be accepted into a degree program upon recommendation of an academic department.

Admission as a graduate non-degree seeking student does not guarantee admission to a graduate degree program. You must still meet all admission requirements and formally apply to Winona State’s Leadership Education programs through GradCAS.
