Statewide Financial Aid Conference


 

The Minnesota Office of Higher Education has decided to no longer hold the Statewide Financial Aid Conference given that we and other organizations provide similar training and services throughout the year.

In the absence of the 2017 Statewide Financial Aid Conference, we want to be sure everyone knows about the available trainings, materials, and services provided by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education and others (see below).
