Setting up a Nelnet Payment Plan, a third-party payment plan provider, and remaining active and current in your payments allows you to stay enrolled in your courses, even if you have a current balance due. It is convenient and makes college more affordable by allowing you to pay for tuition and fees over time.

Tuition payment plans break down your tuition balance into affordable monthly payments. There’s no interest, payment options are flexible, setup fees are affordable, and it’s easy to enroll. You can access the NelNet website HERE.

To adjust your remaining payment plan balance to reflect your account balance as presented in e-Services contact the business office via email to accounts.receivable@minnesotanorth.edu or by calling 218-403-9201.

Tuition Reciprocity agreements are in place between the state of Minnesota and the states of North Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Missouri, and Nebraska exist. Students of these states as well as the provinces of Manitoba and Ontario are permitted to pay tuition at the agreed upon reciprocity rate.

The agreements reduce non-resident tuition process and eliminate non-resident admission barriers for residents of each state who attend a public institution in the other state.

Students wising to apply for reciprocity can learn more by visiting the Minnesota Office of Higher Education website.

Reciprocity application forms are generally available from high school counselors or from your college student services office.
