Montana State University earns $4.5 million in performance money

Thanks to its success in getting more college students to stay in school and graduate, Montana State University will receive the biggest single chunk — $4.5 million — from the Legislature’s $15 million incentive fund for good performance.

The University of Montana is slated to receive slightly less next year, $4 million. That’s because UM has nearly 1,000 fewer students who come from Montana, compared to MSU’s 8,516 in-state students.

However, when the flagship campuses’ affiliated two-year colleges are added in, UM and Missoula College combined will receive $4.8 million, compared to $4.6 million for MSU plus Gallatin College. Missoula College has five times as many students as the newer Gallatin College.
