Applying to More Than One University

Applying to South Dakota public universities is quick and easy.

     Students can apply online at apply.sdbor.edu/login.cfm The online application fee is $20.00 for each university to which the student is applying. (Students can apply to multiple universities by completing one common application and submitting an application fee for each school to which they apply.)  Application fees can be paid online by credit card or e-check, or by mail with check, money order, or cash. Any mailed payments should include the student's name. 

Transcripts can be handled quickly and easily, too. 

Your former schools only need to send one transcript each, even if you are applying to more than one South Dakota public university. Enrollment Services Center has the ability to supply the information to all of South Dakota public universities.

  If your former school is a member of Infinite Campus, they can electronically transmit your transcripts directly to the Enrollment Services Center. Once your application is processed, Enrollment Services Center will forward an electronic copy of all documents to the appropriate universities.

University admission offices are the best source of information about scholarships, academic programs, campus visits, admission status and campus information. Please contact them directly for personal services available to students, families, and schools. (The toll free numbers are listed for each school in #6 above.) The admission office for your chosen university will gladly assist you.
