MSEP participation grows primarily through the extension of tuition benefits to new students. MHEC estimates that 57 percent were new to their college or university in Fall 1995. Participation is concentrated around a cluster of schools. Minnesota has fifty-four campuses participating, the largest of the five states. Minnesota's participation numbers are much smaller than expected, with 407 enrollees.
Private institutions participate at a much smaller rate than public institutions.
This year Missouri was the only state with enrollment in private institutions. The majority of the 366 students enjoying MSEP benefits this semester are concentrated at a very few universitites. This suggests institutional differences in program visibility and promotion. Please feel free to contact us by e-mail, phone, fax, or mail.
