We are glad that you are interested in attending Missouri State University. You may apply up to one year prior to the beginning of the semester for which you plan to enroll. Applying early increases the likelihood of choice placement in housing, registration, and other important services.
Deadlines
The application deadlines for each semester are always the same from year to year.
