Abstract: Minnesota's tuition reciprocity agreements, most of which have been in operation for over 40 years, establish a common market for postsecondary education that promotes student choice. Specifically, the agreements aim to expand education opportunities by allowing Minnesota residents and residents of participating states to be treated as a resident for the purposes of admission and tuition, thereby allowing students to attend the institution that best fits their educational needs. To fulfill the requirements of Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 136A.08, Subdivision 7, the Minnesota Office of Higher Education (OHE) prepares an annual report on the tuition reciprocity programs for the Minnesota Legislature that presents data on: (1) participation; (2) interstate payments; (3) tuition rates; and (4) reciprocity graduates from Minnesota public institutions. This report describes the statutory basis for reciprocity agreements, reciprocity agreements' history, student participation, Minnesota's interstate payment calculations, and student outcomes.
