Tuition Reciprocity for Minnesota Residents

Through state reciprocity agreements, Minnesota residents can attend UW-Stout—the only polytechnic university in Wisconsin or Minnesota—and pay the same tuition that you would for a traditional Minnesota university. That means thousands of dollars in savings over your college career! (Trust us, your adult self will thank you later.)
