Reciprocity Tuition and Fees

Students who live in a state that has a reciprocity agreement with Minnesota, tuition and fees will be based on their home state's negotiated rate. Students from Wisconsin and North Dakota need to apply to their home state to ensure the negotiated tuition rate. Students from South Dakota need to complete an application and mail it to the campus they plan to attend. Contact campus registration staff for assistance.

Senior Citizens

A Minnesota resident who is 62 years of age or older is entitled to enroll in a non-credit open enrollment course at Minnesota West on a space available basis (typically the second day of the class) at no charge.  A Minnesota resident who is 62 years of age or older is entitled to enroll in a credit bearing course for an administrative fee of $20.00 per credit plus fees as allowed by MS135A.52.  A Minnesota resident who is 62 years of age or older is entitled to audit a credit bearing open enrollment course at Minnesota West on a space available basis at no charge.  However, senior citizens auditing a class will be required to pay fees as allowed by MS135A.52. 

A Minnesota resident who is 62 years of age or older enrolled in a closed enrollment contract training or professional continuing education course must pay the regular tuition charge for the course.
