Talent Based Recruitment

Non-resident students who are actively recruited to attend Minnesota State Mankato on the basis of special skills, talents or abilities may be eligible for a waiver of the out-of-state portion of tuition and fees. The Office of Admissions coordinates the granting of out-of-state tuition waivers with recruiting departments (Intercollegiate Athletics, Theatre, Music, Speech, etc.).

Employee/Dependent Tuition Waiver Benefit

Collective bargaining agreements provide tuition waiver benefits to employees of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system. Eligible employees must complete and submit an Application for Tuition Waiver to the Office of Human Resources within the required timelines in order to receive the waiver benefit.
