Our Legislative Request

A Vital Investment in Minnesota’s Future

As the Minnesota State system seeks funding for the 2025 legislative session, Saint Paul College stands out as a critical institution for workforce development and educational opportunity.

The Minnesota State system is requesting $552.3 million for asset preservation and major capital projects and $465 million to directly support students, address workforce needs, and maintain affordable tuition. Saint Paul College plays a vital role in educating and training nearly 10,000 credit and non-credit students each year within its single building.
