In-State Tuition For Out of State Students

[dcb07]

<p>I've heard that UW-Madison offers instate tuition to highly qualified out of state students. I've researched and I can't find any info. Does anybody know if this is true, and if it is, what are the qualifications to earn it?</p>

<p>This is news to me. The only way I know you can get in state tuition is by reciprocity, which is only available to Minnesota residents.</p>

<p>There is one if you are a minority called Powers-Knapp. Otherwise, I haven't heard of anything.</p>
