“The SMSU RN to BSN Program does not have you take a set amount of credits each semester. This flexible scheduling was perfect for me as it allowed me to vary the amount of credits I took each semester. I would have struggled without that flexibility as I am a non-traditional student who is also a wife, mother of four, and worked full time while completing my degree. This program is designed to fit into your life, whether you want to be a full-time or part-time student.”

Warm Minnesota Greetings from the Center for International Education!

It may be cold during certain seasons here in Minnesota, but you will always be greeted by open arms and warm smiles when you stop by the Center for International Education (CIE).  The CIE is the primary contact for international students from the time of application to graduation.  We look forward to assisting you while you attend Southwest Minnesota State University (SMSU)!  We will do our best to make SMSU your "home-away-from-home."

The CIE also oversees study abroad opportunities at SMSU.  If you are interested in studying abroad in a different country, please contact us and make an appointment to talk about the numerous options available.  

Throughout your studies we will do what we can to help you adjust to the culture and support you as you strive to accomplish your academic and career goals.  Not only is our office is here to assist you whenever we can, we also host many university events throughout the year.  We look forward to meeting you soon!
