Admissions Process
At our institution, we operate on a rolling admissions basis, meaning we continually accept applicants for the upcoming Fall Ayurveda Health Counselor (AHC) and Ayurvedic Practitioner (AP) programs. This flexible admissions process allows you to apply and secure your spot in one of the best Ayurveda courses in Minneapolis without waiting for specific deadlines. Start your journey toward becoming a certified Ayurvedic expert and gain hands-on experience in holistic healing practices.
Applications are considered on an on-going basis for the September start. The Gurukula/in-person option is space limiting and as such applicants are encouraged to apply as early as possible.
When the class/Gurukula is full, applicants who apply, interview, and are admitted, will be placed on a waiting list and encouraged to explore the distance learning option.
Please let us know if you have any questions. We are happy to assist you in exploring MNIA.
