LSSU renews tuition agreement with MI National Guard

(Sault Ste. Marie, MI) — Lake Superior State University has renewed its annual tuition agreement with the Michigan National Guard. This is the 12th year of the program that welcomes active drilling members of the Michigan Army National Guard and Michigan Air National Guard to pursue an undergraduate degree at LSSU at a reduced tuition.

Participants will pay less than half of LSSU’s regular tuition rate of $560 per credit hour for fall 2022 and spring 2023 and almost one-third the standard price of $373 per credit hour for winter 2022 and summer 2023.

The compact aligns LSSU tuition with the allowable amount offered by the National Guard’s federal tuition assistance program.
