Since you're planning to attend a school in the University of Texas System, you could be eligible for its free tuition program. Sound too good to be true? Read on.
In a bold initiative, the University of Texas System has announced plans to bridge the tuition gap for students who need it most. Specifically, seven of the nine Texas colleges (Arlington, Austin, El Paso, Pan American, Permian Basin, San Antonio, and Tyler) in the system have pledged free tuition and fees for Texas residents from families with an income level of $25,000 or below. Note: This is a substantially lower income threshold than what has been set by wealthier public and private colleges with similar programs.
