I read an article regarding technical schools in SD giving out scholarships in the millions. The catch is you'd have to stay in the state for 3 years to work in the course of study majored.
This is the article:
Sanford giving $25M for South Dakota scholarships
While I've considered moving to North Dakota, someone mentioned to me that Rapid City, SD is an option to move into while working in North Dakota.
There are 4 technical colleges in SD that are offering the scholarships. I'd have to find which one offers a degree that could be useful in the oilfields. The 4 cities those 4 technical colleges are located in are:
- Southeast Technical Institute in Sioux Falls
- Western Dakota Tech in Rapid City
- Mitchell Technical Institute in Mitchell
- Lake Area Tech in Watertown
Which one would you pick?
