  • Application form
Additional Information: Minnesota has agreements with neighboring states to provide lower tuition for Minnesota residents to attend public colleges and universities in those states. This is called reciprocity. Typically, non-resident admission fees and tuition are reduced (or eliminated). If the student is a Minnesota resident, he/she is eligible for reciprocity if he/she attends any North Dakota public college or university. If the student is a North Dakota resident, he/she is eligible if he/she attends any Minnesota public college or university. Please note: Wisconsin students who are enrolled in the College of Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, or Dentistry at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities or Duluth, and Minnesota residents enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Madison or Milwaukee medical or veterinary medicine schools are not eligible for tuition reciprocity.

Award Amount: This award provides students with reduced out-of-state tuition cost. The reduction amount varies by institution. Typically, students attending participating Wisconsin schools pay the higher of the tuition charged by the Wisconsin college attended or the tuition charged at a similar Minnesota school. Graduate or law students attending a participating school in the other state (Minnesota or Wisconsin) pay whichever state's tuition rate is higher. Detailed information on tuition rates is available online at www.ohe.state.mn.us/mPg.cfm?PageID=100. Reciprocity benefits will be automatically renewed each year providing the student continues to attend a reciprocity college or university and earned credits in the previous 12 months from the same school.  The total dollars awarded for this scholarship is $7,000.
