Residency and Reciprocity
Resident tuition applies to students who are residents of Minnesota.
If there is uncertainty about whether you are considered a Minnesota resident, review the Residency, Reciprocity, and Tuition Exemption booklet. The booklet contains the University's official policy and an application for resident evaluation.
The University has reciprocity agreements with the states of Wisconsin, North Dakota, and the province of Manitoba, Canada. If you are a resident of any of these states or provinces, you may qualify for reciprocity tuition rates that are lower than non-resident tuition rates and, in some cases, comparable to resident rates.
Nonresident and international students will be considered for a reduced tuition rate at the time of admission.
