Aid for Active Duty Personnel Stationed in Minnesota
According to State law, members of the United States Armed Forces on active federal military service stationed in Minnesota and their spouses and dependents are considered Minnesota residents and therefore eligible to participate in the Minnesota State Grant and other Minnesota financial aid programs provided they meet the other program eligibility guidelines. (Minnesota Statue 136A.101 Subdivision 8)
In addition, you may be eligible for additional benefits from your branch of military service. For information regarding these benefits you should contact your personnel non-commissioned officer.
For additional information, please contact the financial aid office of your school or visit federal and state grants.
