Lesley Announces Maine Scholars Program
The Maine Scholars program gives students prioritization by Maine employers as well as opportunities for financial aid and scholarship benefits.

Apply by the deadline.

At Lesley University, we offer many kinds of graduate programs. Some start at multiple times throughout the year, while others only start once per year. This means different application deadlines depending on what you want to study.

Use this table to access your program's deadlines quickly. You can also find the deadlines within your specific program's How to Apply Guide.

We encourage you to apply by the stated deadline for scholarship consideration and space availability.  Please call Graduate Admissions at 617-349-8300 or email luadmissions@lesley.edu to discuss a late application.
