We have one final opportunity to communicate with Gov. Tim Walz and key state legislators about the importance of helping Augsburg students by increasing funding for the State Grant program. These need-based grants impact 48% of Augsburg undergraduate students.
The current legislative session is coming to a close, and now is a critical time to ask Minnesotan policymakers to invest in college students and increase the size of the State Grant. In February, your support helped send over 1,500 messages to Gov. Walz and elected officials.
You can advocate for the State Grant program by utilizing the Minnesota Private College Council’s advocacy system, Advocates for Minnesota Student Aid, by clicking the link below.
