One adult in the couple must be a full-time student at Memorial University, the Marine Institute, or the College of the North Atlantic.
  • A single, full-time student at Memorial University, the Marine Institute, or the College of the North Atlantic, living with children under the age of 18.

  1. Receive your provisional (early) acceptance*. If you have not yet been accepted, apply to study at Memorial University of Newfoundland and submit the required documentation.
  2. Receive your admission decision email.
  3. Activate your MUN Login. You will need this to access a number of student services.
