FREE TUITION - College bound students and their parents are always seeking scholarships and other various means of financing a college education. A college education has become more expensive each year. So, here is important and welcome information for students and their parents who reside in the state of Illinois. A new program called, Illinois Commitment, was recently introduced by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The university will offer FREE TUITION to qualifying students. Students whose combined household income is $61,000 or less can qualify for free tuition starting fall, 2019. The university’s website states, a student qualifies for free tuition if they meet the following criteria:
1. They are an Illinois resident (parents listed on FAFSA must also be residents)
2. Their family income is $61,000 or less
3. Their family’s assets are less than $50,000
4. They are admitted as a new freshman or transfer student
5. They are under the age of 24
This is a great opportunity that will create a brighter future for the students of Illinois.
