Reciprocal attendance agreements between South Dakota and Minnesota boards--Legislative approval required

The State Board of Regents may enter into an agreement with the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating Board to, on a reciprocal basis, enable any resident of South Dakota to attend any public institution of higher education in Minnesota, and any resident of Minnesota to attend any public institution of higher education in South Dakota, without being required to pay nonresident tuition fees. The terms of the agreement shall provide for approximately equal advantages between the contracting parties.

However, nothing in the above entitlement shall bind the State of South Dakota without final legislative approval.
