Tuition-Free Colleges??

<p>Does anyone know anything about them?</p>

<p>Cooper Union, Olin, Deep Springs, and Berea are the ones that spring to my mind. </p>

<p>Cooper Union and Olin are both technically-oriented. Cooper Union has a limited number of programs–very good if you happen to be interested in one of them–and is located in the Greenwich Village area of NYC. Olin is new, an engineering school in Massachusetts near Boston, and has cross registration with several very different and notable schools in its area including, IIRC, Brandeis, Babson, and Wellesley.</p>

<p>Deep Springs is a unique, 2-year experience (All-male, ranching, very isolated, etc. You’ve got to just read their web site) after which students usually go to top 4-yr schools. Deep Springs may be the most selective and one of the most interesting schools in the nation.</p>

<p>Berea was, I believe, founded to serve the poor rural population of Appalachia. It is very hands on, and everyone works at the school, I think. Good academic rep.</p>

<p>Thank You. That helps the research I have to do for a debate in my english class.</p>

<p>If you’re a New York City resident, all the NYC colleges (CUNY) are tuition-free. Queens College, Brooklyn College, CCNY, John Jay, and all the others.</p>

<p>Cooper Union, Berea, and Deep Springs</p>

<p>In addition to what has already been said:</p>

<p>College of the Ozarks
Alice Lloyd College
The US service academies</p>

<p>For Berea, you have to have demonstrated financial need to attend.</p>

<p>There are various programs within schools that are tuition free. The CUNY Macaulay Honors College, for example. Not the whole CUNY school (unless you’re from New York), but if you make it into the honors program.</p>

<p>Try searching for “Work Colleges” I’ve misplaced the link I thought I had in favorites. IIRC, this will connect you to the website of their professional association.</p>

<p>These really help, thanks.</p>
