There is no statute that requires you to get the court's permission to move within the state of Minnesota; however, there is one case which concerned moving a distance within Minnesota and then the court looked at what was in the best interest of the children. What you may want to consider is mediation with your ex-spouse to figure out whether you can come to a temporary solution until you are done with college.
