Applying to MIT
We oversee the application process for students applying for first-year and transfer undergraduate admissions. We try to explain our process, help you understand what we’re looking for, and think about how to prepare for MIT. Most importantly, we try to encourage young people to be students and community members first, and applicants second.
Admissions announcements
✅ We require the SAT or the ACT for both prospective first-year and transfer students. Learn more about our testing requirements.
