how do i get to pay instate tuition if i am an out of state student in a college in minnesota?

Answer 1

You usually have to show residence in a state for anywhere for 3-24 months before you are considered a resident to pay instate tuition. This means you will have to show physical address for that amount of time prior to being given the instate tuition rates.

Answer 2

maybe if you have a relative or someone that you can live with you can claim instate? You should check the requirements though because some, and maybe all, schools require you to live in the state for at least 6 months or a year prior to enrollment. If you are dead set on going there, maybe you should just pay the out of state tuition for the first year, live off campus, and then you can claim residency. I don't think you can claim residency if you live on campus for a year. Or maybe live there for a year and go to a community college to pay cheaper out of state tuition, and then transfer to the other college as instate? Just some ideas....good luck

Answer 3

Only way I can think of it is to move to Minnesota and set up residence there. Though you probably have to live in the state for a few years before you qualify for in-state tuition. Talk to the admissions office at the college you want to go to.

Answer 4

In general, you don't -- unless you establish residency. But you need to live in the state for a year prior to starting school.

However, if you marry a Minnesota resident -- they will let you go to school at in-state rates (I know this from personal experience)

I've included a link below that tells you more.

Answer 5

don't think you can... you have to live in Minnesota for a certain amount of time - before they consider you 'in state'...but, best bet...go talk to admissions at the college - and ask them.
