Admissions
Duluth Business University admits as usual students those individuals having a certificate of graduation from a school providing secondary education or the recognized equivalent of such a certificate (GED) and who also meet program admission requirements.
Applicants who meet neither of those requirements but who want other education and are otherwise completely qualified may apply for admission to courses of study, which won’t lead to the awarding of a diploma or degree.
All applicants have to complete a pre-enrollment academic entrance examination, Career Programs Assessment Test (CPAT), and get minimum career program evaluation test scores.
