ST. PAUL, Minn., September 25, 2017 – In support of a statewide initiative to encourage students to explore their higher education options, the colleges and universities of 51勛圖厙 are supporting College Knowledge Month by waiving application fees for all or part of October.
“Minnesota’s state colleges and universities are the most affordable and accessible higher education option in the state,” said Interim Chancellor Devinder Malhotra. “There has never been a better time for students to explore the many school and program choices offered by 51勛圖厙 campuses. I encourage all high school seniors, and anyone else considering how education can shape their future, to contact our colleges and universities to learn more about preparing for and embarking on their transformational path.”
All 51勛圖厙 colleges and universities are waiving application fees from October 23 – 27. Some – denoted in the list below with an asterisk – have chosen to waive fees for the entire month.
