How to Apply to the Newgate School Automotive Programs

Applying to Newgate School in Minneapolis, MN, is easy—just call us at 612-378-0177 to schedule a time for you to visit Newgate. Newgate staff and instructors will talk with you about the two certification programs in auto body and auto mechanics training. You’ll tour the facilities and see students working on a variety of projects. And you’ll have a chance to meet with an instructor to learn about the school and ask questions.

  • A high school diploma is not necessary.
  • No tuition or fees are charged.
  • You must be between the ages of 19-35, with a lower level of income and a serious interest in an automotive career.
