Admissions

The Office of Admissions coordinates the admission of students to undergraduate, graduate and professional programs at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Applicants to the School of Law and School of Dentistry should refer to those sections of the catalog. International students should apply through the International Student Affairs Office.

Recruitment

The office also coordinates the recruitment of students to undergraduate programs. Staff participate in a number of recruiting activities across the state of Missouri, including college fair programs, high school visits, community college visits and employer sponsored career fairs. Requests for information about UMKC and its academic programs are handled through the mailing services of the Office of Admissions. E-mail us at admit@umkc.edu for information.

Orientation

The Office of Admissions coordinates orientation programs for new freshmen and transfer students. Admitted students receive information about orientation in late spring. Orientation is mandatory for new freshmen, optional for transfer students and includes initial academic advising.

Welcome Center

The Welcome Center is the central location for greeting campus visitors, including prospective students and their families. Campus visits usually include a tour and an opportunity for guests to meet with an Admissions representative, an academic adviser in their area of interest and the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office. Customized tours are also available for groups or individuals who have specialized interests or needs. The center also provides assistance in locating off-campus housing.
