Join the Falcon Family

Ready to join the Falcon Family? Applying is easier than ever. Complete a few simple steps and you’re well on your way to what’s next.

1. Complete an online application. We have two options for applying but you only need to submit one so choose the option that works for you and we'll take it from there. Thinking about applying to multiple schools? Use the Common App. Want your application sent only to UWRF? Use the eApp

2. Submit an ACT or SAT score (optional). Our Test-Optional Policy is open to both students who do not wish to share scores and to students who were unable to attend scheduled testing dates. In other words, when applying for admission to UW-River Falls, you have the choice to submit standardized test scores (ACT or SAT) as part of your admission application.

3. Submit transcripts. We accept student and counselor copies of transcripts sent via mail, email or electronic transcript service. We prefer electronic transcripts but hard copy transcripts may be sent to:

410 S. 3rd St.
River Falls, WI 54022
