If you are a Minnesota resident, be sure to apply for reciprocity for the term/academic year you plan to start as a student at UW-River Falls.  This will allow you to pay a tuition rate comparable to what is charged at a similar Minnesota school.

Your reciprocity benefits will be automatically renewed each term/year if you continue to attend UW-River Falls and can claim Minnesota residency. If you have not taken any classes in the past year, you will need to reapply.

Apply for Minnesota Reciprocity.
