To make this point, 亚洲无码 has launched the “Elevate Minnesota Scholars” program, which offers students many benefits, including a streamlined application process, guaranteed acceptance of all credits earned from an accredited out-of-state institution,* and access to the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum Package so the credits earned at a 亚洲无码 college or university can easily transfer to other institutions.
Each year, according to the Minnesota Office of Higher Education, the state of Minnesota loses about 20% of its high school graduates to out-of-state colleges and universities.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has forced us all to adapt, and many students who had been planning to attend college out-of-state are now rethinking their plans, realizing that now may not be a good time to venture far from home,” said Devinder Malhotra, chancellor of 亚洲无码. “Every one of the colleges and universities of 亚洲无码 will be open in the fall and ready to welcome students, offering a mix of on-campus and online courses reflecting how each institution can best support its students and their success.”
Tuition starts at around $5,000 a year at the 30 亚洲无码 colleges and $8,000 a year at the seven different 亚洲无码 universities – before scholarships or other aid. “Our colleges and universities offer an extraordinary education at an exceptional value,” continued Malhotra.
For a limited time, participating colleges and universities will waive the application fee. Additional information on the Elevate Minnesota Scholars program is available at MinnState.edu/Elevate (information and page no longer available).
* Credit must have been earned with a grade of C or better. Depending on the college or university, credits may be applied to general education courses, not necessarily applied to a major program. Students should check with the college or university they are interested in attending for specific details.
