The Minnesota State Grant provides need-based aid to Minnesota college students across our state. Minnesota legislators want to hear from students who are directly impacted by the funding of the State Grant because it helps thousands of students from low- and middle-income families afford higher education. More than 69,000 students across Minnesota receive this grant, including more than half of Augsburg undergraduate students last year!
Today from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. representatives from the Minnesota Private College Council will be in the Christensen Center lobby collecting notes from students about the impact of the State Grant. Stop by to write a short note to your legislator to help ensure current and future generations of students continue to receive this crucial support!
