Apply as an international student

You’ve done your research. You’ve found your community. From our first-rate academics to our hundreds of ways to get involved, IU Bloomington is definitely the place for you. You know that you’re ready to make IU Bloomington your home. So take the next step: begin the admission process and apply. You can apply to IU as one of three types of students—freshman, transfer, or graduate.

Choose your path

  • Freshman students

    Apply as a freshman if you have never attended college or university before. You must earn a diploma from an accredited high school before you enroll at IU. Freshman applicants have two applications to choose from—you only need to submit one.

  • Transfer students

    Apply as a transfer student if you are currently attending, or have previously attended, a college or university—either in the United States or another country.

  • Graduate students

    Apply as a graduate student if you have a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent (or will have by the time you enroll at IU)—either in the United States or in your home country.
