<p>I got a letter from the NSA that said in effect they'd pay for my college (comp sci) if I agree to commit six years of service after college to them. Kind of similar to West Point or Annapolis where you're tied to military service for five years I think. I wondered - might there be other organizations public or private that offer to pay for your college (or a significant portion) in exchange for a commitment of work time after your time in school? </p>
<p>Oh, man. The OP immediately made me think of the famous scene from “Good Will Hunting”:

<p>(Wow, how prescient was that scene, particularly the last line or two in the clip? The film was made in 1997, several years before Dubya made his way into the White House.)</p>
