Starting summer semester, St. Louis Community College will offer tuition breaks for some out-of-state residents. Students living in llinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wisconsin will have to pay $156.50 instead of $214.50 per credit hour.

STLCC joined the Midwest Student Exchange Program (MSEP) where public institutions agree to charge students in participating states no more than 150 percent of the in-state resident tuition rate.brief

Students eligible for this discount have to be U.S. citizens or U.S. residents.

The tuition change will start in summer and is not retroactive.

More than 100 colleges so far are participating in the MSEP.
