Red Wing College Promise


In 2023, the Jones Family Foundation partnered with Minnesota State College Southeast to offer the Red Wing College Promise, an exciting opportunity for Red Wing high school students, bringing together both organizations’ shared commitment to sustain and grow educational opportunities and economic vitality in Red Wing. Through the Red Wing College Promise, every eligible student graduating from a Red Wing public high school (Red Wing High School, Tower View Alternative High School, 5RiversOnline, or River Bluff Education Center) is guaranteed access to a post-secondary education with the ability to earn a certificate, a one-year diploma or two-year degree at Minnesota State College Southeast.

The Red Wing College Promise covers 100% of tuition and fees (up to 70 credits) not fulfilled by federal grants, state grants, and/or other scholarships to qualifying high school students to attend Minnesota State College Southeast. In addition, Red Wing College Promise includes:

  • A stipend of $500 per year for two years (max of $1,000) for needed books and materials.
  • Assistance with enrolling at the college and navigating financial aid
  • Individualized success coaching once enrolled as a student.

 

We’d like to ensure that the Red Wing College Program continues to serve students for many years to come. We invite the community to help change the lives of local students in the high school graduating classes in 2027, 2028, and 2029 by becoming a Red Wing College Promise investor today.
