Aviation Partners with Tuition Exchange Group
Western Michigan University’s College of Aviation is now part of a nine-state tuition reciprocity program that will start in 2016-17, making enrollment in the college more accessible to nonresident students from across the Midwest.

The agreement, which is between WMU and the Midwest Student Exchange Program, is limited to WMU's three undergraduate aviation programs and will restrict nonresident tuition rates for students from member states to no more than 150 percent of resident rates. Member states include Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Wisconsin. 

"As WMU seeks to increase enrollment of out-of-state students, joining MSEP opens new doors to attract prospective students to consider WMU," says Dr. Christopher Tremblay, WMU associate provost for enrollment management. "This move can potentially expand our recruitment territory into states where we have not previously directly recruited."

The move, Tremblay says, will also boost the University's recruitment success in states like Illinois, where WMU already has both a strong recruiting presence and a large alumni base.
