For students & families

The Post-Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) program enables Minnesota high school students in grades 10-12 to enroll into one or more classes taught by a 2-year or 4-year college or university. By completing this college class, which can be taken online or in-person at the college campus, PSEO students earn college credits that are automatically applied to their high school graduation requirements!

​

Taking these classes are completely free - PSEO students don't need to pay for tuition or textbooks. However, you need to pay for food and transportation. Low-income families are eligible for PSEO travel reimbursement. Some students choose to be a full-time PSEO student (and not go to high school at all) or to be a part-time PSEO student and take only some classes at the high school. In order to enroll in PSEO, you need to apply to, and be accepted by, a college's PSEO program! Under state law, PSEO students are still high school students: you can still attend high school programs, activities, and clubs. In addition, you can use high school resources, such as its library or computer lab, in order to complete your PSEO coursework.
