EnglishWhat is Minnesota State College Southeast?
Updated
Minnesota State College Southeast is a public college in Minnesota that offers classes in Red Wing, Winona, and online. It serves students at different stages — including those starting college, returning to school, or seeking workforce training — and describes its mission as meeting students where they are and helping them achieve their goals.
Where it is and how classes are delivered
The college operates two physical campuses and an online option:
- Red Wing, Minnesota
- Winona, Minnesota
- Online classes
This mix means you can study in person at either campus or take courses remotely, depending on your program and schedule.
What it offers
Programs and courses
Southeast provides academic programs as well as workforce education. According to the college, it is offering new workforce education courses in the fall. The site also references a Liberal Arts and Sciences program, with schedules and forms distributed to program faculty.
Support for students
The college highlights several forms of student support:
- Scholarships — the site notes that more students receive scholarships this fall semester.
- Food insecurity support — Southeast has received funds to address student food insecurities.
- Community partnerships — for example, a partnership with Kwik Trip.
These are the kinds of resources that matter if cost or basic needs are part of your decision.
Who it is for
The college frames itself around the idea that "college is for everyone." Based on the programs and calendar, it serves:
- New and current students in degree or liberal arts pathways
- PSEO students (postsecondary enrollment options) and non-degree seeking students, who get a specific registration window
- Workforce education learners looking for short-term or career-focused courses
