Bemidji State University, located amid the lakes and forests of northern Minnesota, occupies a wooded campus along the shores of Lake Bemidji. BSU strikes the balance between academic rigor and Northern Minnesota’s fun, robust outdoor culture. The proximity to the lake and the surrounding Northwoods allows easy access to an assortment of recreation, including kayaking, boating, paddleboarding, hunting, hiking, foraging, skiing, fishing, ice fishing and snowboarding.
A member of the Minnesota State system of colleges and universities, BSU will be part of Minnesota State Week.
Students can submit an application for free during this week and are encouraged to connect with the BSU Admissions team. Students who participate in a virtual visit event, complete an info request form or apply to BSU during this week will receive a BSU sticker and window cling while supplies last.
Students attending Bemidji State enjoy a vibrant, four-season campus. Campus is small and easy to navigate with clear signage to direct students and families to where they need to be. The student-to-faculty ratio is 20:1 so students have the opportunity to engage closely with their instructors and getting involved with campus.
