We will help guide you through the process of submitting transcripts, applying for financial aid, registering for classes and securing housing. Welcome to the TMU Family!

Once you’ve received your acceptance letter, please log in to your Student Application Portal to view and reply to your Application Decision. Once you accept your application decision, you will submit your enrollment fee.
The enrollment fee is a $175 non-refundable fee, which secures your space at TMU and is required for placement in campus housing and course registration.

Upon graduation, accepted high school students must submit a final transcript reflecting your senior year credits, grades, final rank in class, and date of graduation. Transfer students must submit a final transcript of all work completed at all colleges and universities previously attended.
