Multicultural Excellence Program

The Multicultural Excellence Program (MEP) is no longer available to new first-year students. Students enrolled prior to fall semester 2010 will continue to receive MEP funds.

The MEP may be a combination of the Federal Pell Grant, the Minnesota State Grant, and institutional grants. It is renewable by maintaining a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.5 and available until the student receives an undergraduate degree or up to a maximum of ten semesters.

The MEP is available for summer school. However, you must have completed at least 24 credits the preceding year with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 to be eligible. You must be enrolled for at least 12 credits.
