H&SS Undergraduate Admissions

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences highlights Carnegie Mellon's unique brand of multidisciplinary collaboration and innovation in many ways. We offer a range of traditional, interdisciplinary, and even inter-College degree programs. When you apply to H&SS, you have many options to choose from—or even design your own custom degree program.

Begin by submitting an application to Carnegie Mellon and choose H&SS on your form. Carnegie Mellon uses the Common Application exclusively and all undergraduate applications are handled through Carnegie Mellon's Admissions Office. To begin the application process, start here. Other resources include the Carnegie Mellon Undergraduate Catalog, which provides detailed instructions on how to apply to the university and how to select H&SS as your college.

The university encourages applicants to visit our campus and to talk with alumni. The H&SS Academic Advisory Center can also help you with the application process, and facilitates campus visits, meeting with advisors, meeting with faculty, and special admissions events. Contact the H&SS Academic Advisory Center at (412) 268-2924.
