Minnesota Teacher Scholarships

Minnesota teachers who are teaching or plan to teach an AP* course are eligible for financial scholarships from the state.

This year, the state expects to reimburse at least $600 for tuition and $150 or more for room and board. Depending on the number of enrollments for this summer, the Minnesota Department of Education may be able to reimburse up to the full-cost of the institute, but that will not be decided until after all institutes are done. 

*The state will reimburse the individual school districts after the participant has attended the institute. The individual must pay in advance of the institute. *
