Minnesota undergraduate and graduate students annually borrow nearly $70 million under the SELF Loan Program. In addition to Minnesotans attending in-state institutions, borrowers included Minnesota residents attending institutions in other states and residents of other states attending Minnesota institutions. The SELF program does not receive state appropriations. SELF Loans are financed by the sale of revenue bonds, loan repayments, and interest earnings on funds in the program.

The Minnesota State Grant Program is the state's largest financial aid program providing need-based grant assistance to Minnesota undergraduates.
