Through this new affiliation, MCAD gains access to a wealth of academic resources, international student support tools, and recruitment opportunities—all designed to strengthen the college’s global engagement and impact.

As part of this partnership, the college will also be participating in CIS-organized college fairs in New York City, Houston, and San Francisco this September, helping introduce the institution to a broader international student audience.

Land Acknowledgement

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) acknowledges it is located on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous people. This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism. We recognize that this place has a complex and layered history. As a community dedicated to creativity, MCAD is committed to ongoing efforts to support and advocate for American Indian Nations and peoples.

It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, or marital status in the administration of its educational policies, scholarship and loan programs, and other school-administered programs.
