Who We Are

The University of Minnesota Morris is located two and a half hours west of Minneapolis in Morris. The campus is a student-centered public liberal arts college that prides itself on its close-knit community and world-class education. 

As a part of the University of Minnesota System, Morris has worldwide name recognition, state-of-the-art research facilities, and nationally ranked study abroad programs, all with a low student-to-faculty ratio and at a quarter of the cost of Minnesota’s most expensive private school. 

As part of the Morris community, UMN Morris plays a big role in its small-town setting. Given its student population of 1,100 and the town's population of 5,100, you are sure to encounter someone affiliated with the campus wherever you go. The community's support, both on and off campus, will make your time at Morris special.
