Snelling Avenue is a light rail station along the METRO Green Line in Saint Paul, Minnesota. It is located along University Avenue on either side of the intersection with Snelling Avenue. The station has split side platforms, with the westbound platform on the north side of the tracks west of Snelling and the eastbound platform on the south side of the tracks east of the intersection. This might be Minnesota's busiest intersection, with 64,000 cars passing through it daily.

Construction in this area began in 2011. The station opened along with the rest of the line in 2014.

A bus rapid transit line, called the A Line, began operating on Snelling Avenue in June 2016, stopping at the station midway between its route from 46th Street to Rosedale Transit Center.

The new Minnesota United FC Stadium will open in 2018 on the southeast corner of University and Snelling Avenues. The Snelling Avenue light rail station will serve the new soccer stadium.
