Minnesota has ongoing reciprocity agreements with Wisconsin, North Dakota, South Dakota, and the Canadian province of Manitoba. The agreements reduce non-resident tuition prices and eliminate non-resident admissions barriers for residents of each state who attend a public institution in the other state.
The programs with Wisconsin, North Dakota, and South Dakota cover virtually all students, including full-time, part-time, undergraduate, graduate, and professional (some professional programs are excluded). Students wishing to apply for tuition reciprocity can find out more here.
The Net Price Calculator is intended to provide estimated cost of
attendance including tuition, required fees, books/supplies, room and
board, and other related expenses minus estimated grant and scholarship
aid to current and prospective students and their families based on what
similar students paid in a previous year.
