Choose the method that works best for you. We have no preference.
Each part of your application can arrive separately, in any order, and in any format.
1. ONLINE
When applying online, you'll need to get a school report with transcript and one teacher evaluation. You can open the files below, print the forms, give them to your guidance counselor and a teacher, and ask them to mail or fax the forms to Gustavus (Gustavus Admission Office / 800 W.

2. ON PAPER
If you prefer to apply to Gustavus partially or entirely using a paper application, you can open the file below, print it, complete each part, and mail the forms to Gustavus. In mid-August, many students were mailed Part One of our application. If you complete and send that, then all you need to do is Part Two of the paper or online application (plus the school report and teacher evaluation).
