Wisconsin lawmakers approve tuition reciprocity deal (AP)

A tuition reciprocity deal between Minnesota and Wisconsin won approval Thursday from Wisconsin’s budget-writing committee, sealing the deal that had been worked out between the two states.

The Minnesota board that governs most of that state’s two- and four-year schools approved it last month.

The deal reached between the state’s two governors in June extends a long-standing agreement allowing students to get in-state rates if they attend college across the border.
