Minnesota's Private Colleges

The average student receives more than $17,000 a year in aid that will never have to be paid back.

The opportunity to have small classes and work closely with professors makes a difference in the quality of the education our students receive.

Minnesotans of all backgrounds and incomes succeed at our colleges.

This is about the same proportion as at the University of Minnesota.

Our graduation rate is the best in the state; graduating on time helps students avoid extra costs.

We offer the specific majors — and real-world experiences — that connect with students’ career goals.
