Mission & Purpose

Persons applying for admission to Montana State University or returning to the university following a break in attendance are required to disclose whether they have been convicted of a felony crime, have been institutionalized for threatening or causing injury to persons or property, and/or have been dismissed and/or suspended from a college for non-academic disciplinary reasons. An affirmative response to one or more of these questions generates a requirement for further review by the Committee.
