New: Free College Tuition At The University Of Texas

Interested in pursuing business and hate debt? You may want to consider studying in Texas.

The University of Texas school system – all nine schools – just approved $35 million directly to the campuses and directed additional investments to further support financial aid and tuition relief for students from families making under $100k. This aid isn’t just for business students, but all of their undergrads. This includes:

1. University of Texas at Austin – McCombs School of Business
2. University of Texas at Arlington – College of Business
3. University of Texas at Dallas – Naveen Jindal School of Management
4. University of Texas at El Paso – College of Business Administration
5. University of Texas Rio Grande Valley – College of Business and Entrepreneurship
6. University of Texas at San Antonio – College of Business
7. University of Texas at Tyler – College of Business and Technology
8. University of Texas Permian Basin – College of Business
9. Stephen F. Austin State University – Arthur M. Blank College of Business

Where are the funds coming from? A collection of endowment distributions, the university’s Available University Fund, and other resources. This could mean a huge relief for many, especially considering that the average student with a bachelor’s degree leaves college nearly $30,000 in debt.

“To be in a position to make sure our students can attend a UT institution without accruing more debt is very important to all of us, and as long as we are here, we will continue our work to provide an affordable, accessible education to all who choose to attend a UT institution,” said Kevin P. Eltife, Chairman of the Board of Regents.
