In addition, the technology plan calls for increased instructional technology support staff as well as technology curriculum support staff and more extensive training for faculty once every three years. The proposed budget is developed over a period of several months, beginning in March with preliminary discussions of institutional needs. Following its adoption on Saturday, the Board will submit its request to Governor Janklow and the Bureau of Finance and Management. The amount paid by Minnesota and South Dakota students varies. Required fees are the same for resident and non-resident students.
Tuition varies among the Minnesota colleges and universities.
A South Dakota student attending a Minnesota higher education institution can expect to pay an amount equal to what a Minnesota resident would pay to attend the same institution. The Board of Regents will next meet at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City on October 8 and 9.
