Non-Minnesota Residents
The University of Minnesota Medical School is committed to attracting a diverse student body. In order to attract diverse students from a variety of geographic, social, economic, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds, we must recruit students from beyond the borders of Minnesota.
Non-residents will be evaluated as possible members of the class using the following factors: academic achievement, high academic potential, educational disadvantage, financial need, race and ethnicity, evidence of outstanding leadership, creativity, unique work or service experience, community involvement and special talents.
To help achieve this goal, the Medical School may award up to 25 scholarships, equivalent in amount to the whole or partial cost of the non-resident portion of medical school tuition, to high ability non-resident, non-reciprocity students.
