<p>State of residency?</p>
<p>Minnesota has University of Minnesota, Morris (2,000 student public LAC), but cost of attendance is around $22,000 per year. While relatively inexpensive (and with no out of state surcharge), it is still above your budget, and probably not very generous with financial aid if you are not a Minnesota resident.</p>
<p>Some of the most selective LACs have relatively generous financial aid reputations, but they should not be counted on as safeties.</p>
