Forms, Policies, and Procedures
The University of Minnesota’s One Stop website is the central repository for information regarding registration, records, financial aid, billing, payment, and veterans benefits and should be your first stop when searching. However, the College of Design has collected forms and FAQs frequently requested by design students into a forms, policies, and procedures page.

Design Justice is committed to creating space, policies, and practices within our college that support the inclusion and retention of Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) and other historically underinvested communities.
