Out of state students' financial situations part 1

Out-of-state students at Michigan State University pay nearly three times the amount of money that in-state students do for tuition.

In-state kids pay $14,114 per year while out-of-state students pay $37,942. The reason for that is due to the fact that out-of-state students have to catch up on paying taxes in the state of Michigan.

With that being said, there has to be some sort of incentive to come to Michigan State if you're not from the state of Michigan.

Michigan State University gives out a certain number of scholarships to out-of-state students only, based on their grades, ACT/SAT scores and family legacy. The application for admission to the university is the application for the scholarships.
